Based on how its used, I would have suspected this to be named 
pte_map_trylock().

I think FAULT_FLAG_SPECULATIVE should be introduced in the patch that 
actually uses it.

Ugh, but we aren't oom here, so maybe rename oom_free_new so that it makes 
sense for return values other than VM_FAULT_OOM?

Comment needs updating, pte_same() isn't the only reason to bail out here.

Not crucial, but it would be nice if this could do goto out instead, 
otherwise this is the first mid function return.

Same as above.

mem_cgroup_try_charge() is done before grabbing pte_offset_map_lock(), why 
does the out_nomap exit path do mem_cgroup_cancel_charge(); 
pte_unmap_unlock()?  If the pte lock can be droppde first, there's no need 
to embed the mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() here.

This is more spaghetti, can the exit path be fixed up so we order things 
consistently for all gotos?
