If we wouldn't account the gup refcounts on the tail pages during gup, we won't know anymore which tail page is pinned by gup and which is not while we run split_huge_page. But we still have to add the gup pin to the head page too, to know when we can free the compound page in case it's never -splitted during its lifetime.
