[PATCH] cpuset: combine refresh_mems and update_mems

Browse Source 
The important code paths through alloc_pages_current() and alloc_page_vma(),
by which most kernel page allocations go, both called
cpuset_update_current_mems_allowed(), which in turn called refresh_mems().
-Both- of these latter two routines did a tasklock, got the tasks cpuset
pointer, and checked for out of date cpuset->mems_generation.

That was a silly duplication of code and waste of CPU cycles on an important
code path.

Consolidated those two routines into a single routine, called
cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), since it updates more than just
mems_allowed.

Changed all callers of either routine to call the new consolidated routine.
