[PATCH] mm: nommu use compound pages

Now that compound page handling is properly fixed in the VM, move nommu
over to using compound pages rather than rolling their own refcounting.

nommu vm page refcounting is broken anyway, but there is no need to have
divergent code in the core VM now, nor when it gets fixed.
