Subject: [PATCH 21/29] mm: implement speculative handling in wp_page_copy()

Change wp_page_copy() to handle the speculative case.
This involves aborting speculative faults if they have to allocate an
anon_vma, and using pte_map_lock() instead of pte_offset_map_lock()
to complete the page fault.

Also change call sites to clear vmf->pte after unmapping the page table,
in order to satisfy pte_map_lock()'s preconditions.
