Subject: tmpfs: handle MPOL_LOCAL mount option properly
From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 71fe804b6d5 (mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in
shmem_sb_info) added mpol=local mount option. but its feature is broken
since it was born. because such code always return 1 (i.e. mount
failure).
This patch fixes it.
