[PATCHv5 08/17] mm: Make page_zonenum() use head page

With the upcoming changes to HVO, a single page of tail struct pages
will be shared across all huge pages of the same order on a node. Since
huge pages on the same node may belong to different zones, the zone
information stored in shared tail page flags would be incorrect.
Always fetch zone information from the head page, which has unique and
correct zone flags for each compound page.
