[PATCH 12/26] mm/nds32: Use general page fault accounting

From: Peter Xu
Date: Fri Jun 26 2020 - 18:32:01 EST


Use the general page fault accounting by passing regs into handle_mm_fault().
It naturally solve the issue of multiple page fault accounting when page fault
retry happened.

Fix PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS perf event manually for page fault retries, by
moving it before taking mmap_sem.
