From: Miao Xie on
- local variable might be an empty nodemask, so must be checked before setting
pol->v.nodes to it.

- nodes_remap() may cause the weight of pol->v.nodes being monotonic decreasing.
and never become large even we pass a nodemask with large weight after
->v.nodes become little.

this patch fixes these two problem.
