The function kvm_is_mmio_pfn is called before put_page is called on a
page by KVM. This is a problem when when this function is called on some
struct page which is part of a compund page. It does not test the
reserved flag of the compound page but of the struct page within the
compount page. This is a problem when KVM works with hugepages allocated
at boot time. These pages have the reserved bit set in all tail pages.
Only the flag in the compount head is cleared. KVM would not put such a
page which results in a memory leak.
