set_mempolicy2 is an extensible set_mempolicy interface which allows
a user to set the per-task memory policy.
Defined as:
set_mempolicy2(struct mpol_args *args, size_t size, unsigned long flags);
relevant mpol_args fields include the following:
mode: The MPOL_* policy (DEFAULT, INTERLEAVE, etc.)
mode_flags: The MPOL_F_* flags that were previously passed in or'd
into the mode. This was split to hopefully allow future
extensions additional mode/flag space.
pol_nodes: the nodemask to apply for the memory policy
pol_maxnodes: The max number of nodes described by pol_nodes
The usize arg is intended for the user to pass in sizeof(mpol_args)
to allow forward/backward compatibility whenever possible.
The flags argument is intended to future proof the syscall against
future extensions which may require interpreting the arguments in
the structure differently.
Semantics of `set_mempolicy` are otherwise the same as `set_mempolicy`
as of this patch.

The core arguments (mode, mode_flags, pol_nodes, and pol_maxnodes) apply to
