[x86] Stricter check in follow_huge_addr()

[Christoph Lameter]

From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>
Subject: Compound Pages: Stricter check in follow_huge_addr

The first page of the compound page is determined in follow_huge_addr()
but then PageCompound() only checks if the page is part of a compound page.
PageHead() allows checking if this is indeed the first page of the 
compound.
