Hmm. it obviously should... which kernel version do you use for testing?

        __PAGEFLAG(Locked, locked, PF_NO_TAIL)

and

        #define PF_NO_TAIL(page, enforce) ({                                    
\
                VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(enforce && PageTail(page), page);     \
        compound_head(page);})
        
and this matches compound_head() in lock/unlock_page().

No, no. If you use an old kernel (which doesn't call compound_head() in
lock_page()), then just remove compound_head() from __ClearPageLocked_x()
above:

        static inline void __ClearPageLocked_x(struct page *page)
        {
                if (PageLocked(page))
                        unlock_page(page);
        }

even if this shouldn't make any difference afaics, note the
VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS() above.

Oleg.
