Add a schedule() if raced to prevent repeated page faults wasting CPU and
add noise to perf statistics.

Use a bool to state the special case instead of reusing existing variables
fixing error handling [Minchan Kim].

Use schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) for now instead of schedule() to
prevent the busy faulting task holds CPU and livelocks [Huang, Ying].
