mlock: do not munlock pages in __do_fault()



If the page is going to be written to, __do_page needs to break COW.

However, the old page (before breaking COW) was never mapped mapped into
the current pte (__do_fault is only called when the pte is not present),
so vmscan can't have marked the old page as PageMlocked due to being
mapped in __do_fault's VMA.  Therefore, __do_fault() does not need to
worry about clearing PageMlocked() on the old page.
