Subject: [PATCH v4 04/13] mm/mempolicy: allow preferred code to take a nodemask

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

Create a helper function (mpol_new_preferred_many()) which is usable
both by the old, single-node MPOL_PREFERRED and the new
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY.

Enforce the old single-node MPOL_PREFERRED behavior in the "new"
version of mpol_new_preferred() which calls mpol_new_preferred_many().

v3:
  * fix a stack overflow caused by emty nodemask (Feng)
