[PATCH v2 02/20] mm: Prepare for FAULT_FLAG_SPECULATIVE

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz at infradead.org>

When speculating faults (without holding mmap_sem) we need to validate
that the vma against which we loaded pages is still valid when we're
ready to install the new PTE.

Therefore, replace the pte_offset_map_lock() calls that (re)take the
PTL with pte_map_lock() which can fail in case we find the VMA changed
since we started the fault.

Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz at infradead.org>

[Port to 4.12 kernel]
[Remove the comment about the fault_env structure which has been
 implemented as the vm_fault structure in the kernel]
