The idea comes from the upstream discussion between Linus and Andrea:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20171102193644.gb22...@redhat.com/
A summary to the issue: there was a special path in handle_userfault()
in the past that we'll return a VM_FAULT_NOPAGE when we detected
non-fatal signals when waiting for userfault handling. We did that by
reacquiring the mmap_sem before returning. However that brings a risk
in that the vmas might have changed when we retake the mmap_sem and
even we could be holding an invalid vma structure.
This patch is a preparation of removing that special path by allowing
the page fault to return even faster if we were interrupted by a
non-fatal signal during a user-mode page fault handling routine.
