futex, thp: remove special case for THP in get_futex_key
With new THP refcounting, we don't need tricks to stabilize huge page. If we've got reference to tail page, it can't split under us. This patch effectively reverts a5b338f2b0b1 ("thp: update futex compound knowledge"). Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
