[PATCH v4 03/26] mm/arc: Use general page fault accounting

Use the general page fault accounting by passing regs into handle_mm_fault().
It naturally solve the issue of multiple page fault accounting when page fault
retry happened.

Fix PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS perf event manually for page fault retries, by
moving it before taking mmap_sem.
