David Chen 3af734f3ea Fix page corruption caused by racy check in __free_pages 
commit 462a8e08e0 upstream.

When we upgraded our kernel, we started seeing some page corruption like
the following consistently:

  BUG: Bad page state in process ganesha.nfsd  pfn:1304ca
  page:0000000022261c55 refcount:0 mapcount:-128 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x1304ca
  flags: 0x17ffffc0000000()

  page dumped because: nonzero mapcount
  CPU: 0 PID: 15567 Comm: ganesha.nfsd Kdump: loaded Tainted: P    B      O      5.10.158-1.nutanix.20221209.el7.x86_64 #1
  Hardware name: VMware, Inc. VMware Virtual Platform/440BX Desktop Reference Platform, BIOS 6.00 04/05/2016

   alloc_pages_current+0x87/0xf0
   skb_page_frag_refill+0x84/0x110
   ...

Sometimes, it would also show up as corruption in the free list pointer
and cause crashes.

After bisecting the issue, we found the issue started from commit
e320d3012d ("mm/page_alloc.c: fix freeing non-compound pages"):

	if (put_page_testzero(page))
		free_the_page(page, order);
	else if (!PageHead(page))
		while (order-- > 0)
			free_the_page(page + (1 << order), order);

So the problem is the check PageHead is racy because at this point we
already dropped our reference to the page.  So even if we came in with
compound page, the page can already be freed and PageHead can return
false and we will end up freeing all the tail pages causing double free.
