[PATCH bpf-next v5 2/4] bpf: arena: allocate the fault-in page outside the lock

arena_vm_fault() allocated the page while holding arena->spinlock, so it
could only use the non-blocking allocator. Once the memcg is at
memory.max that allocation just fails, the fault turns into
VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and the process gets a SIGSEGV on a perfectly valid
arena address. Hitting memory.max is routine (e.g. page cache from
reading a big file), so this kills innocent processes.

Rework the fault handler:

- Preallocate the page before taking the lock, like do_anonymous_page()
  does, so it can sleep and go through reclaim and the memcg OOM killer,
  instead of turning a routine memory.max into a fake segfault.

- On allocation failure return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS. The allocation already
  ran reclaim and the OOM killer, so the failure is non-recoverable. For
  a task faulting its own arena this changes nothing: the OOM killer
  already picked it inside the allocation and it dies by SIGKILL, the
  SIGBUS is shadowed by the pending fatal signal, and the memcg OOM is
  still reported. VM_FAULT_OOM would instead be retried by the fault
  path and can livelock when the charged memcg is not the faulting
  task's (e.g. a shared arena) and its OOM killer cannot reach it.

- A lockless probe skips that preallocation when a page is already mapped
  (e.g. allocated by the bpf program), so the common case wastes no
  allocation. The rare race where such a page is freed before we take the
  lock falls back to the non-blocking allocator under the lock.

- Return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS for the other non-recoverable errors (lock
  failure, range-tree and page-table failures) instead of
  VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV; only BPF_F_SEGV_ON_FAULT, and a scratch-page hole
  under that flag, is a real user addressing error and keeps
  VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV.

- Tidy up the error labels.
