Let's return early for hugetlb, which really only relies on the compound
mapcount so far and does not support PageDoubleMap() yet. Use the chance
to cleanup the file-THP case to make it easier to grasp. While at it, use
head_compound_mapcount().

This is a preparation for further changes.
It would be useful to add “no functional change intended” or something.

Before you return, perhaps you can add an assertion like:

	VM_BUG_ON(PageDoubleMap(page));

This would be make the code clearer and would ease debugging in the
future (if support for double-map is expanded).
