Add another layer of fallback policy to make the home node concept
useful from a memory allocation PoV.
This changes the mpol order to:
- vma->vm_ops->get_policy [if applicable]
- vma->vm_policy [if applicable]
- task->mempolicy
- tsk_home_node() preferred [NEW]
- default_policy
Note that the tsk_home_node() policy has Migrate-on-Fault enabled to
facilitate efficient on-demand memory migration.
