Peter Xu c0bff412e6 mm: allow anon exclusive check over hugetlb tail pages
PageAnonExclusive() used to forbid tail pages for hugetlbfs, as that used
to be called mostly in hugetlb specific paths and the head page was
guaranteed.

As we move forward towards merging hugetlb paths into generic mm, we may
start to pass in tail hugetlb pages (when with cont-pte/cont-pmd huge
pages) for such check.  Allow it to properly fetch the head, in which case
the anon-exclusiveness of the head will always represents the tail page.

There's already a sign of it when we look at the GUP-fast which already
contain the hugetlb processing altogether: we used to have a specific
commit 5805192c7b ("mm/gup: handle cont-PTE hugetlb pages correctly in
gup_must_unshare() via GUP-fast") covering that area.  Now with this more
generic change, that can also go away.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
