Actually, we should probably delete folio_test_transhuge().  I'll tack
a patch onto the end of this series to do that.  I want to avoid a
reference to free_transhuge_folio() if !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE and
folio_test_transhuge() accomplishes that by way of TESTPAGEFLAG_FALSE
in page-flags.  But so does folio_test_deferred_list() which is what
we're getting to by the end of this series.

So I'll leave this patch alone for now (other than fixing up the
buildbot errors).
