Subject: [PATCH] mm: page_alloc: check the order of compound page event when
 the order is 0

For compound pages, the head sets the PG_head flag and
the tail sets the compound_head to indicate the head page.
If a user allocates a compound page and frees it with a different
order, the compound page information will not be properly
initialized. To detect this problem, compound_page(page) and
the order are compared, but it is not checked when the order is 0.
That error should be checked regardless of the order.
