[PATCH] sys_set_mempolicy() doesnt check if mode < 0


A kernel BUG() is triggered by a call to set_mempolicy() with a negative
first argument.  This is because the mode is declared as an int, and the
validity check doesnt check < 0 values.  Alternatively, mode could be
declared as unsigned int or unsigned long.
