Subject: mlock: revert mainline handling of mlock error return
From: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@xxxxxx>
This change is intended to make mlock() error returns correct.
make_page_present() is a lower level function used by more than mlock().
Subsequent patch[es] will add this error return fixup in an mlock specific
path.
