see commit b6999b191 which target for x86 mm/gup, let it align with

Quote from commit b6999b191:
    "If compound pages are used and the page is a
    tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are
    mapped while gup_huge_pud does not do that."

Note the patch got linewrapped along the way but it's trivial enough to be
fixed up.
