mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when no_context
No need to call mpol_set_nodemask() when we have no context for the mempolicy. This can occur when we're parsing a tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Just save the raw nodemask in the mempolicy's w.user_nodemask member for use when a tmpfs/shmem file is created. mpol_shared_policy_init() will "contextualize" the policy for the new file based on the creating task's context.
