[PATCH v2 7/7] x86: mm: accelerate pagefault when badaccess

[Kefeng Wang]

The access_error() of vma already checked under per-VMA lock, if it
is a bad access, directly handle error, no need to retry with mmap_lock
again. In order to release the correct lock, pass the mm_struct into
bad_area_access_error(), if mm is NULL, release vma lock, or release
mmap_lock. Since the page faut is handled under per-VMA lock, count it
as a vma lock event with VMA_LOCK_SUCCESS.
