mm: move FAULT_FLAG_VMA_LOCK check from handle_mm_fault()
Handle a little more of the page fault path outside the mmap sem. The hugetlb path doesn't need to check whether the VMA is anonymous; the VM_HUGETLB flag is only set on hugetlbfs VMAs. There should be no performance change from the previous commit; this is simply a step to ease bisection of any problems.
