riscv: mm: try VMA lock-based page fault handling first

Attempt VMA lock-based page fault handling first, and fall back to the
existing mmap_lock-based handling if that fails.

A simple running the ebizzy benchmark on Lichee Pi 4A shows that
PER_VMA_LOCK can improve the ebizzy benchmark by about 32.68%. In
theory, the more CPUs, the bigger improvement, but I don't have any
HW platform which has more than 4 CPUs.

This is the riscv variant of "x86/mm: try VMA lock-based page fault
handling first".
