[patch 24/33] fix OOM killing processes wrongly thought MPOL_BIND

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>

I only have CONFIG_NUMA=y for build testing: surprised when trying a memhog
to see lots of other processes killed with "No available memory
(MPOL_BIND)".  memhog is killed correctly once we initialize nodemask in
constrained_alloc().
