Lee Schermerhorn fc36b8d3d8 mempolicy: use MPOL_F_LOCAL to Indicate Preferred Local Policy 
Now that we're using "preferred local" policy for system default, we need to
make this as fast as possible.  Because of the variable size of the mempolicy
structure [based on size of nodemasks], the preferred_node may be in a
different cacheline from the mode.  This can result in accessing an extra
cacheline in the normal case of system default policy.  Suspect this is the
cause of an observed 2-3% slowdown in page fault testing relative to kernel
without this patch series.

To alleviate this, use an internal mode flag, MPOL_F_LOCAL in the mempolicy
flags member which is guaranteed [?] to be in the same cacheline as the mode
itself.

Verified that reworked mempolicy now performs slightly better on 25-rc8-mm1
for both anon and shmem segments with system default and vma [preferred local]
policy.
