[PATCH 6/7] Mlock: revert mainline handling of mlock error return

[Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com>]

Revert the change to make_page_present() error return.

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.
