[PATCH v7 0/6] Per-VMA lock support for swap and userfaults

[Suren Baghdasaryan]

When per-VMA locks were introduced in [1] several types of page faults
would still fall back to mmap_lock to keep the patchset simple. Among them
are swap and userfault pages. The main reason for skipping those cases was
the fact that mmap_lock could be dropped while handling these faults and
that required additional logic to be implemented.
Implement the mechanism to allow per-VMA locks to be dropped for these
cases.
First, change handle_mm_fault to drop per-VMA locks when returning
VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED to be consistent with the way
mmap_lock is handled. Then change folio_lock_or_retry to accept vm_fault
and return vm_fault_t which simplifies later patches. Finally allow swap
and uffd page faults to be handled under per-VMA locks by dropping per-VMA
and retrying, the same way it's done under mmap_lock.
Naturally, once VMA lock is dropped that VMA should be assumed unstable
and can't be used.

Changes since v6 posted at [2]
- 4/6 replaced the ternary operation in folio_lock_or_retry,
per Matthew Wilcox
- 4/6 changed return code description for __folio_lock_or_retry
per Matthew Wilcox

Note: patch 3/6 will cause a trivial merge conflict in arch/arm64/mm/fault.c
when applied over mm-unstable branch due to a patch from ARM64 tree [3]
which is missing in mm-unstable.
