s390/mm: handle PTE-mapped tail pages in fast gup
commit fc897c95e91451271cd707ee0f71022b9b201ce9 upstream. With the THP refcounting rework it is possible to see THP compound tail pages mapped with PTEs during a THP split. This needs to be considered when using page_cache_get_speculative(), which will always fail on tail pages because ->_count is always zero. commit 7aef4172 "mm: handle PTE-mapped tail pages in gerneric fast gup implementaiton" fixed it for the generic fast gup code by using compound_head(page) instead of page, but not for s390. This patch is a 1:1 adaption of commit 7aef4172 for the s390 fast gup code. Without this fix, gup will fall back to the slow path or fail in the unlikely scenario that we hit a THP under splitting in-between the page table split and the compound page split.
