mm: page cache: store only head pages in i_pages
Transparent Huge Pages are currently stored in i_pages as pointers to
consecutive subpages. This patch changes that to storing consecutive
pointers to the head page in preparation for storing huge pages more
efficiently in i_pages.

Kirill and Huang Ying contributed several fixes.
