Next: [PATCH 3/5] tmpfs: handle MPOL_LOCAL mount option properly
From: KOSAKI Motohiro on 16 Mar 2010 02:00
Currently, following mount operation cause mount error.

% mount -t tmpfs -ompol=bind:0 none /tmp

Because commit 71fe804b6d5 (mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in
shmem_sb_info) corrupted MPOL_BIND parse code.

This patch restore the needed one.
