mm/gup: Handle page split race more efficiently
If we hit the page split race, the current code returns NULL which will
presumably trigger a retry under the mmap_lock. This isn't necessary;
we can just retry the compound_head() lookup. This is a very minor
optimisation of an unlikely path, but conceptually it matches (eg)
the page cache RCU-protected lookup.
