arena_vm_fault() allocated the page while holding arena->spinlock, so it
could only use the non-blocking allocator, which never reclaims. Once the
memcg is at memory.max that allocation just fails, the fault turns into
VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and the process gets a SIGSEGV on a perfectly valid
arena address. Hitting memory.max is routine (e.g. page cache from
reading a big file), so this kills innocent processes over memory that
reclaim could have freed.

Rework the fault handler:

- Preallocate the page before taking the lock, like do_anonymous_page()
  does, so it can sleep and reclaim, instead of turning a routine
  memory.max into a fake segfault. The allocation never invokes the OOM
  killer, see bpf_map_alloc_page_sleepable().

- On allocation failure fall through to the locked recheck rather than
  failing right away: a page a concurrent allocator installed meanwhile
  is used, otherwise the non-blocking fallback fails and we return
  VM_FAULT_SIGBUS. Not VM_FAULT_OOM: nothing ran the OOM killer, and the
  fault path would just retry it forever.

- A lockless probe skips that preallocation when a page is already mapped
  (e.g. allocated by the bpf program), so the common case wastes no
  allocation. The rare race where such a page is freed before we take the
  lock falls back to the non-blocking allocator under the lock.

- Return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS for the other non-recoverable errors (lock
  failure, range-tree and page-table failures) instead of
  VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV; only BPF_F_SEGV_ON_FAULT, and a scratch-page hole
  under that flag, is a real user addressing error and keeps
  VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV.

- Tidy up the error labels.
