Subject: Mempolicy: fix mpol_to_str() to handle ignore mode flags
From: Lee Schermerhorn <Lee.Schermerhorn@xxxxxx>
Fixes problem introduced by my previous patch:
mempolicy-use-mpol_f_local-to-indicate-preferred-local-policy.patch
Eliminate display of bogus '=' flag indicator in presence of
internal mode flags.
Without this fix, on 25-rc8-mm1, a display of a process' numa_maps
will show, e.g., default policy as "default=". Worse, if the maps
include longer policies, such as "interleave:0-3", this problem will
lose the string terminator after the "<mode>=" and display subsequent
default policies as "default=ve:0-3".
