commit 95837924
category: feature
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6I1Z2
CVE: NA

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=95837924587c60425f941dc8cbfba61cb964fcb5

--------------------------------

Currently the kernel_mbind() and kernel_set_mempolicy() do almost the same
operation for parameter sanity check.

Add a helper function to unify the code to reduce the redundancy, and make
it easier for changing the sanity check code in future.

[thanks to David Rientjes for suggesting using helper function instead of
macro].
