[PATCH 12/11] unpaged: fix sound Bad page states

[Hugh Dickins]

Earlier I unifdefed PageCompound, so that snd_pcm_mmap_control_nopage
and others can give out a 0-order component of a higher-order page,
which won't be mistakenly freed when zap_pte_range unmaps it.  But
many Bad page states reported a PG_reserved was freed after all: I had
missed that we need to say __GFP_COMP to get compound page behaviour.

Some of these higher-order pages are allocated by snd_malloc_pages, some
by snd_malloc_dev_pages; or if SBUS, by sbus_alloc_consistent - but that
has no gfp arg, so add __GFP_COMP into its sparc32/64 implementations.

I'm still rather puzzled that DRM seems not to need a similar change.
