mempolicy: convert MPOL constants to enum
The mempolicy mode constants, MPOL_DEFAULT, MPOL_PREFERRED, MPOL_BIND, and
MPOL_INTERLEAVE, are better declared as part of an enum since they are
sequentially numbered and cannot be combined.
The policy member of struct mempolicy is also converted from type short to
type unsigned short. A negative policy does not have any legitimate meaning,
so it is possible to change its type in preparation for adding optional mode
flags later.
The equivalent member of struct shmem_sb_info is also changed from int to
unsigned short.
For compatibility, the policy formal to get_mempolicy() remains as a pointer
to an int:
int get_mempolicy(int *policy, unsigned long *nmask,
unsigned long maxnode, unsigned long addr,
unsigned long flags);
although the only possible values is the range of type unsigned short.
