Hi,

Can we pretty please get this into the current merge window? All it takes
is a quick review and test ;) I think mspec was already tested, but it
wouldn't hurt to verify again...

It shaves about .5K off mm/memory.o so it is pretty significant.
Mispredicted branches are also actually a significant cost in the fault
path which I'm trying to reduce (merging fault with page_mkwrite should
help with this further).
