mm/mempolicy: use unified 'nodes' for bind/interleave/prefer policies

Current structure 'mempolicy' uses a union to store the node info for
bind/interleave/perfer policies.

union {
short   preferred_node; /* preferred */
nodemask_t  nodes; /* interleave/bind */
/* undefined for default */
} v;

Since preferred node can also be represented by a nodemask_t with only ont
bit set, unify these policies with using one nodemask_t 'nodes', which can
remove a union, simplify the code and make it easier to support future's
new policy's node info.
