mm: fix double mmap_sem unlock on MMF_UNSTABLE enforced SIGBUS

Tetsuo Handa has noticed that MMF_UNSTABLE SIGBUS path in
handle_mm_fault causes a lockdep splat

     do_page_fault+0x30/0x80
     page_fault+0x28/0x30

The reason is that the page fault path might have dropped the mmap_sem
and returned with VM_FAULT_RETRY.  MMF_UNSTABLE check however rewrites
the error path to VM_FAULT_SIGBUS and we always expect mmap_sem taken in
that path.  Fix this by taking mmap_sem when VM_FAULT_RETRY is held in
the MMF_UNSTABLE path.

We cannot simply add VM_FAULT_SIGBUS to the existing error code because
all arch specific page fault handlers and g-u-p would have to learn a
new error code combination.
