[PATCH] [SRU] [P/master] arm: Port OOM changes into do_page_fault

[Paolo Pisati]

SRU JUSTIFICATION 
=================

EFFECT 
======

Reduce mmap_sem lock contention on arm while using java (see below)

FIX 
=== 

This patch reduces contention on the mmap_sem lock and seems to solve the

INFO: task foo:bar blocked for more than 120 seconds

scenario (and a subsequent deadlock frequently seen using java on arm -
see http://launchpad.net/bugs/845158).

TEST 
====

This commit has already been incorporated/tested in the armadaxp kernel and impacts
only the arm side of master, proposing for P/master (omap4 will get it via
rebase).
