mm: fix infinite loop in filemap_fault
filemap_fault will go into an infinite loop if ->readpage() fails
asynchronously.
AFAICS the bug was introduced by this commit, which removed the wait after the
final readpage:

mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings
Fix by reintroducing the wait_on_page_locked() after ->readpage() to make sure
the page is up-to-date before jumping back to the beginning of the function.
I've noticed this while testing nfs exporting on fuse. The patch
fixes it.
