Subject: [PATCH v3 3/8] mm: drop per-VMA lock in handle_mm_fault if retrying
 or when finished

handle_mm_fault returning VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED means
mmap_lock has been released. However with per-VMA locks behavior is
different and the caller should still release it. To make the
rules consistent for the caller, drop the per-VMA lock before returning
from handle_mm_fault when page fault should be retried or is completed.
