Subject[PATCH 2/2] kexec: export OFFSET(page.compound_head) to find out compound tail page
Date
PageAnon() always look at head page to check PAGE_MAPPING_ANON and
tail page's page->mapping has just a poisoned data since commit
1c290f642101e6.

If makedumpfile checks page->mapping of an compound tail page to
distinguish anonymous page as usual, it must fail in newer kernel.
So it's necessary to export OFFSET(page.compound_head) to
avoid checking compound tail pages.
