The page table tree is walked with local irqs disabled, which prevents
page table reclamation (similarly to what fast GUP does). The logic is
otherwise similar to the non-speculative path, but with additional
restrictions: in the speculative path, we do not handle huge pages or
wiring new pages tables.
