I think the reason is that zone_device struct pages have no relationship to one other. So
you anyways need to change individual pages, as opposed to just the head page.
I made it special to avoid breaking other ZONE_DEVICE users (and gating that with
PGMAP_COMPOUND). But if there's no concerns with that, I can unilaterally enable it.
