There are two cases here where we skipped the accounting,
fault_signal_pending() and VM_FAULT_ERROR, similar to other archs.

fault_signal_pending() should be ok, because that only seems to be true
for fault & VM_FAULT_RETRY, in which case the new approach also skips
the accounting.

But for VM_FAULT_ERROR, the new approach would do accounting, IIUC. Is
that changed on purpose? See also my reply on [PATCH 01/26].
