mm, mempolicy: stop adjusting current->il_next in mpol_rebind_nodemask()

The task->il_next variable stores the next allocation node id for task's
MPOL_INTERLEAVE policy.  mpol_rebind_nodemask() updates interleave and
bind mempolicies due to changing cpuset mems.  Currently it also tries
to make sure that current->il_next is valid within the updated nodemask.
This is bogus, because 1) we are updating potentially any task's
mempolicy, not just current, and 2) we might be updating a per-vma
mempolicy, not task one.

The interleave_nodes() function that uses il_next can cope fine with the
value not being within the currently allowed nodes, so this hasn't
manifested as an actual issue.

We can remove the need for updating il_next completely by changing it to
il_prev and store the node id of the previous interleave allocation
instead of the next id.  Then interleave_nodes() can calculate the next
id using the current nodemask and also store it as il_prev, except when
querying the next node via do_get_mempolicy().
