Subject: [v3 PATCH 2/2] mm: thp: check page_mapped instead of page_mapcount for split

When debugging the bug reported by Wang Yugui [1], try_to_unmap() may
return false positive for PTE-mapped THP since page_mapcount() is used
to check if the THP is unmapped, but it just checks compound mapount and
head page's mapcount.  If the THP is PTE-mapped and head page is not
mapped, it may return false positive.

The try_to_unmap() has been changed to void function, so check
page_mapped() after it.  And changed BUG_ON to WARN_ON since it is not a
fatal issue.

v3: Incorporated the comments from Hugh. Keep Zi Yan's reviewed-by tag
    since there is no fundamental change against v2.
v2: Removed dead code and updated the comment of try_to_unmap() per Zi
    Yan.
