mm/page_alloc.c: fix freeing non-compound pages

Here is a very rare race which leaks memory:

Page P0 is allocated to the page cache.  Page P1 is free.

Thread A                Thread B                Thread C
find_get_entry():
xas_load() returns P0
						Removes P0 from page cache
						P0 finds its buddy P1
			alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, 1) returns P0
			P0 has refcount 1
page_cache_get_speculative(P0)
P0 has refcount 2
			__free_pages(P0)
			P0 has refcount 1
put_page(P0)
P1 is not freed

Fix this by freeing all the pages in __free_pages() that won't be freed
by the call to put_page().  It's usually not a good idea to split a page,
but this is a very unlikely scenario.

Test that a memory leak does not occur due to a race between
freeing a block of pages and a speculative page reference.
Loading this module is safe if your kernel has the bug fixed.
If the bug is not fixed, it will leak gigabytes of memory and
probably OOM your system.
