Hi Andi,

We have

        count_vm_event(PGFAULT);
        count_memcg_event_mm(vma->vm_mm, PGFAULT);

in handle_mm_fault() but not counterpart for spf.  I think it would be 
helpful to be able to determine how much faulting can be done 
speculatively if there is no per-process tracking without tracing.
