[PATCH 2/2] mm/hmm: Only set FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY for non-blocking

I reverted all the amdgpu HMM patches for 5.2 because they also depended on this patch:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/commit/?h=drm-next-5.2-wip&id=ce05ef71564f7cbe270cd4337c36ee720ea534db
which did not have a clear line of sight for 5.2 either.

Hi Jerome,

Do you want me to push the patches to your branch? Or are you going to
apply them yourself?

Is your hmm-5.2-v3 branch going to make it into Linux 5.2? If so, do you
know when? I'd like to coordinate with Dave Airlie so that we can also
get that update into a drm-next branch soon.

I see that Linus merged Dave's pull request for Linux 5.2, which
includes the first changes in amdgpu using HMM. They're currently broken
without these two patches.

Thanks,
   Felix
