Subject: [PATCH] Fix breakage in NOMMU build

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@...fujitsu.com>

Commit 34e55232e59f7b19050267a05ff1226e5cd122a5 added sync_mm_rss() for
syncing loosely accounted rss counters.  It's for CONFIG_MMU but sync_mm_rss
is called even in NOMMU enviroment (kerne/exit.c, fs/exec.c).  Above commit
doesn't handle it well.

This patch changes
  SPLIT_RSS_COUNTING depends on SPLIT_PTLOCKS && CONFIG_MMU

And for avoid unnecessary function calls, sync_mm_rss changed to be inlined
noop function in header file.
