PATCH v4 11/26 mm/mips: Use general page fault accounting

Use the general page fault accounting by passing regs into handle_mm_fault(). It naturally solve the issue of multiple page fault accounting when page fault retry happened.

Fix PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS perf event manually for page fault retries, by moving it before taking mmap_sem.
