[PATCH 4/4] fsfreeze: avoid to return zero in __get_user_pages

[Marco Stornelli]

In case of VM_FAULT_RETRY, __get_user_pages returns the number
of pages alredy gotten, but there isn't a check if this number is
zero. Instead, we have to return a proper error code so we can avoid
a possible extra call of __get_user_pages. There are several
places where get_user_pages is called inside a loop until all the
pages requested are gotten or an error code is returned.
