avr32/mm/fault.c: port OOM changes to do_page_fault
Commits d065bd810b6d ("mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer") and 37b23e0525d3 ("x86,mm: make pagefault killable") introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler for making the page fault handler retryable as well as killable. These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial during OOM killer invocation. Port these changes to AVR32. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment layout] Signed-off-by: Mohd.
