[PATCH 03/16] page-flags: introduce page flags policies wrt compound pages

[Kirill A. Shutemov]

This patch third argument to macros which create function definitions
for page flags. This arguments defines how page-flags helpers behave
on compound functions.

For now we define four policies:

 - ANY: the helper function operates on the page it gets, regardless if
   it's non-compound, head or tail.

 - HEAD: the helper function operates on the head page of the compound
   page if it gets tail page.

 - NO_TAIL: only head and non-compond pages are acceptable for this
   helper function.

 - NO_COMPOUND: only non-compound pages are acceptable for this helper
   function.

For now we use policy ANY for all helpers, which match current
behaviour.

We do not enforce the policy for TESTPAGEFLAG, because we have flags
checked for random pages all over the kernel. Noticeable exception to
this is PageTransHuge() which triggers VM_BUG_ON() for tail page.
