We currently store order-N THPs as 2^N consecutive entries.  While this
consumes rather more memory than necessary, it also turns out to be
buggy for filesystems which track dirty pages as a writeback operation
which starts in the middle of a dirty THP will not notice as the dirty
bit is only set on the head index.  With multi-index entries, the dirty
bit will be found on the head index.

This does end up simplifying the page cache slightly, although not as
much as I had hoped.
