Since commit 5232c63f46fd ("mm: Make compound_pincount always available"),
compound_pincount_ptr is stored at first tail page now.  So we should call
prep_compound_head() after the first tail page is initialized to take
advantage of the likelihood of that tail struct page being cached given
that we will read them right after in prep_compound_head().
