Subject[PATCH] powerpc/mm: Fix missing mmap_sem release
Date
The commit b5c8f0fd595d ("powerpc/mm: Rework mm_fault_error()") reviewed
the way the error path is managed in __do_page_fault() but it was a bit too
agressive when handling a case by returning without releasing the mmap_sem.

By the way, replacing current->mm->mmap_sem by mm->mmap_sem as mm is set to
current->mm.

Fixes: b5c8f0fd595d ("powerpc/mm: Rework mm_fault_error()")
