ARM: 7368/1: fault.c: correct how the tsk->[maj|min]_flt gets incremented
commit 8878a539ff19a43cf3729e7562cd528f490246ae was done by me to make the page fault handler retryable as well as interruptible. Due to this commit, there is a mistake in the way in which tsk->[maj|min]_flt counter gets incremented for VM_FAULT_ERROR: If VM_FAULT_ERROR is returned in the fault flags by handle_mm_fault, then either maj_flt or min_flt will get incremented. This is wrong as in the case of a VM_FAULT_ERROR we need to be skip ahead to the error handling code in do_page_fault. Added a check after the call to __do_page_fault() to check for (fault & VM_FAULT_ERROR).
