Subject: [PATCH] mm, page_owner: handle THP splits correctly
THP splitting path is missing the split_page_owner() call that split_page() has.
As a result, split THP pages are wrongly reported in the page_owner file as order-9 pages. Furthermore when the former head page is freed, the remaining former tail pages are not listed in the page_owner file at all. This patch fixes that by adding the split_page_owner() call into __split_huge_page().

Nevermind about these 3 rejections, I've fixed them up.
