zsmalloc: fix obj_to_head use page_private(page) as value but not pointer
In obj_malloc(): if (!class->huge) /* record handle in the header of allocated chunk */ link->handle = handle; else /* record handle in first_page->private */ set_page_private(first_page, handle); In the hugepage we save handle to private directly. But in obj_to_head(): if (class->huge) { VM_BUG_ON(!is_first_page(page)); return *(unsigned long *)page_private(page); } else return *(unsigned long *)obj; It is used as a pointer. The reason why there is no problem until now is huge-class page is born with ZS_FULL so it can't be migrated. However, we need this patch for future work: "VM-aware zsmalloced page migration" to reduce external fragmentation.
