Ok, looking more closely at the dump and code, I see that __free_huge_page()
was called via alloc_pool_huge_page -> put_page() -> destroy_compound_page()
-> compound_page_dtors[2].

It doesn't feel right that alloc_pool_huge_page() ends up freeing the
newly allocated page again. Maybe some refcounting race, so that put_page()
wrongly assumes it was the last reference?

Also from the dump, I could reconstruct the (head) struct page pointer
that __free_huge_page() was called with. Here is the content of the
head and the first tail page, maybe it can help. page->private in the tail
page was zeroed already in __free_huge_page(), but its original value was
the broken *spool pointer 0000004e00000000, as seen in the register output
of the backtrace.
