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.
