Subject: [RFC PATCH 21/37] mm: implement speculative handling in do_swap_page()
If the pte is larger than long, use pte_spinlock() to lock the page table
when verifying the pte - pte_spinlock() is necessary to ensure the page
table is still valid when we are locking it.
Abort speculative faults if the pte is not a swap entry, or if the desired
page is not found in swap cache, to keep things as simple as possible.
Only use trylock when locking the swapped page - again to keep things
simple, and also the usual lock_page_or_retry would otherwise try to
release the mmap lock which is not held in the speculative case.
Use pte_map_lock() to ensure proper synchronization when finally committing
the faulted page to the mm address space.
