mm: page_alloc: check the order of compound page even when the order is zero 

For compound pages, the head sets the PG_head flag and the tail sets the
compound_head to indicate the head page.  If a user allocates a compound
page and frees it with a different order, the compound page information
will not be properly initialized.  To detect this problem,
compound_order(page) and the order argument are compared, but this is not
checked when the order argument is zero.  That error should be checked
regardless of the order.
