Subject: [PATCH] mm: page_isolation: use compound_nr() correctly in isolate_single_pageblock()

From: Zi Yan <[email protected]>

When compound_nr(page) was used, page was not guaranteed to be the head
of the compound page and it could cause an infinite loop. Fix it by calling
it on the head page.

Fixes: b2c9e2fbba32 ("mm: make alloc_contig_range work at pageblock granularity")
