mm: introduce pte_spinlock for FAULT_FLAG_SPECULATIVE
When handling page fault without holding the mmap_sem the fetch of the
pte lock pointer and the locking will have to be done while ensuring
that the VMA is not touched in our back.
So move the fetch and locking operations in a dedicated function.
