mm: hwpoison: fix thp split handling in memory_failure()

When memory_failure() runs on a thp tail page after pmd is split, we
trigger the following VM_BUG_ON_PAGE():

   page:ffffd7cd819b0040 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:         (null) index:0x1
   flags: 0x1fffc000400000(hwpoison)
   page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!page_count(p))
   ------------[ cut here ]------------
   kernel BUG at /src/linux-dev/mm/memory-failure.c:1132!

memory_failure() passed refcount and page lock from tail page to head
page, which is not needed because we can pass any subpage to
split_huge_page().
