We have trouble keeping track of whether we've already called compound_head() to ensure we're not operating on a tail page. Further, it's never clear whether we intend a struct page to refer to PAGE_SIZE bytes or page_size(compound_head(page)). Introduce a new type 'struct folio' that always refers to an entire (possibly compound) page, and points to the head page (or base page).
