+ * PageTransCompoundMap is the same as PageTransCompound, but it also

+ * can also map the entire compound page. This allows the secondary
+ * MMUs to call get_user_pages() only once for each compound page and
+ * to immediately map the entire compound page with a single secondary
+ * MMU fault. If there will be a pmd split later, the secondary MMUs
+ * will get an update through the MMU notifier invalidation through
+ * split_huge_pmd().
+ *
+ * Unlike PageTransCompound, this is safe to be called only while
+ * split_huge_pmd() cannot run from under us, like if protected by the
+ * MMU notifier, otherwise it may result in page->_mapcount < 0 false
