I'll change that to let the architectures (x86 and ppc64 currently)
selecting it, but the definition will remain in the arch/xxx/Kconfig file
since it depends on the architecture support in the page fault handler.

That's true 3 letter acronyms are already reserved...
I'll change it to CONFIG_SPECULATIVE_PAGE_FAULT as suggested by Matthew Wilcox.
Thanks,
