mm: fix handling of panic_on_oom when cpusets are in use
The current panic_on_oom may not work if there is a process using cpusets/mempolicy, because other nodes' memory may remain. But some people want failover by panic ASAP even if they are used. This patch makes new setting for its request. This is tested on my ia64 box which has 3 nodes.
