mempolicy: create mempolicy_operations structure

Create a mempolicy_operations structure that currently points to two
functions[*] for the various modes:

	int (*create)(struct mempolicy *, const nodemask_t *);
	void (*rebind)(struct mempolicy *, const nodemask_t *);

This splits the implementation for the various modes out of two large
functions, mpol_new() and mpol_rebind_policy().  Eventually it may be
beneficial to add additional functions to accomodate the existing switch()
statements in mm/mempolicy.c.

 [*] The ->create() function for MPOL_DEFAULT is currently NULL since no
     struct mempolicy is dynamically allocated.
