mm/gup: continue VM_FAULT_RETRY processing even for pre-faults
When get_user_pages*() is called with pages = NULL, the processing of
VM_FAULT_RETRY terminates early without actually retrying to fault-in all
the pages.
If the pages in the requested range belong to a VMA that has userfaultfd
registered, handle_userfault() returns VM_FAULT_RETRY *after* user space
has populated the page, but for the gup pre-fault case there's no actual
retry and the caller will get no pages although they are present.
This issue was uncovered when running post-copy memory restore in CRIU
after d9c9ce34ed5c ("x86/fpu: Fault-in user stack if
copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() fails").
After this change, the copying of FPU state to the sigframe switched from
copy_to_user() variants which caused a real page fault to get_user_pages()
with pages parameter set to NULL.
In post-copy mode of CRIU, the destination memory is managed with
userfaultfd and lack of the retry for pre-fault case in get_user_pages()
causes a crash of the restored process.
Making the pre-fault behavior of get_user_pages() the same as the "normal"
one fixes the issue.
