Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the akpm tree with the tip tree

Hi Andrew,

Today's linux-next merge of the akpm tree got a conflict in
mm/mempolicy.c between commit e9d5bc24d665 ("mm/mpol: Make mempolicy
home-node aware") from the tip tree and commit "mempolicy: fix a memory
corruption by refcount imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()" from the akpm tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).
