3.5.7.2 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Naoya Horiguchi <[email protected]> commit 783657a7dc20e5c0efbc9a09a9dd38e238a723da upstream. When we try to soft-offline a thp tail page, put_page() is called on the tail page unthinkingly and VM_BUG_ON is triggered in put_compound_page(). This patch splits thp before going into the main body of soft-offlining.
