The current name free_{huge,transhuge}_page are paired with
alloc_{huge,transhuge}_page functions, but the actual page free
function is still free_page() which will indirectly call
free_{huge,transhuge}_page. So this patch removes this confusion
by renaming all the compound page dtors.
Is this code churn really worth it?
Getting naming straight is kinda nit. :)

But I don't feel strong either way.
