Subject[PATCH] cpuset: fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory spread is set
The task still allocated the page caches on old node after modifying its
cpuset's mems when 'memory_spread_page' was set, it is caused by the old
mem_allowed_list of the task, the current kernel doesn't updates it unless some
function invokes cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), it is too late sometimes.
We must update the mem_allowed_list of the tasks in time.

Slab has the same problem.

We fixes the bug by updating tasks' mem_allowed_list and spread flag after
its cpuset's mems or spread flag is changed.
