PF_NO_COMPOUND for PG_reserved assumes we don't use PG_reserved for
compound pages. And we generally don't. But during allocation of
gigantic pages we set PG_head before clearing PG_reserved and
__ClearPageReserved() steps on the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE().
The fix is trivial: set PG_head after PG_reserved.

Andrew, this patch can be folded into "page-flags: define PG_reserved behavior
on compound pages".
