mm: mlock: avoid increase mm->locked_vm on mlock() when already mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT) 

When one vma was with flag VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT (by invoking
mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT)), it can again be populated with mlock() with
VM_LOCKED flag only.

There is a hole in mlock_fixup() which increase mm->locked_vm twice even
the two operations are on the same vma and both with VM_LOCKED flags.

The issue can be reproduced by following code:

  mlock2(p, 1024 * 64, MLOCK_ONFAULT); //VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT
  mlock(p, 1024 * 64);  //VM_LOCKED

Then check the increase VmLck field in /proc/pid/status(to 128k).

When vma is set with different vm_flags, and the new vm_flags is with
VM_LOCKED, it is not necessarily be a "new locked" vma.  This patch
corrects this bug by prevent mm->locked_vm from increment when old
vm_flags is already VM_LOCKED.
