commit ba9c1201beaa86a773e83be5654602a0667e4a4d upstream.

Commit 1378a5ee451a ("mm: store compound_nr as well as compound_order")
added compound_nr counter to first tail struct page, overlaying with
page->mapping. The overlay itself is fine, but while freeing gigantic
hugepages via free_contig_range(), a "bad page" check will trigger for
non-NULL page->mapping on the first tail page:

Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint

This is because only the compound_order is cleared in
destroy_compound_gigantic_page(), and compound_nr is set to
1U << order == 1 for order 0 in set_compound_order(page, 0).

Fix this by explicitly clearing compound_nr for first tail page after
calling set_compound_order(page, 0).
