mm: fix non-compound multi-order memory accounting in __free_pages

Browse source

When a non-compound multi-order page is freed, it is possible that a
speculative reference keeps the page pinned.  In this case we free all
pages except for the first page, which will be freed later by the last
put_page().  However the page passed to put_page() is indistinguishable
from an order-0 page, so it cannot do the accounting, just as it cannot
free the subsequent pages.  Do the accounting here, where we free the
pages.
