Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm/numa_balancing: Allow setting numa balancing for tmpfs

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@...lia.com>

Since MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING was added some time ago, lets also recognise
it as a valid tmpfs mount option.

As an extension to the exiting format:

  mpol=<mode>[=<flag>][:nodelist]

Multiple flags are added in a list separated by vertical bars, such as:

  mpol=<mode>[=<flag>[|<flag>]...][:nodelist]

For example:

 $ mount none -t tmpfs mnt -o mpol=bind=balancing:2,0
 $ mount | grep mpol
 none on ... type tmpfs (rw,relatime,mpol=bind=balancing:0,2)

Or:

 $ mount none mnt -t tmpfs -o "mpol=bind=balancing|static:1,0"
 $ mount | grep mpol
 none on ... type tmpfs (rw,relatime,mpol=bind=balancing|static:0-1)

I am not sure to be honest if this is useful for tmpfs, but is just an
asymmetry I noticed while doing stuff in this area.
