[PATCH 22/29] mm: implement and enable speculative fault handling in handle_pte_fault()

[Michel Lespinasse]

In handle_pte_fault(), allow speculative execution to proceed.

Use pte_spinlock() to validate the mmap sequence count when locking
the page table.

If speculative execution proceeds through do_wp_page(), ensure that we
end up in the wp_page_reuse() or wp_page_copy() paths, rather than
wp_pfn_shared() or wp_page_shared() (both unreachable as we only
handle anon vmas so far) or handle_userfault() (needs an explicit
abort to handle non-speculatively).
