mm, cpuset: always use seqlock when changing task's nodemask

When updating task's mems_allowed and rebinding its mempolicy due to
cpuset's mems being changed, we currently only take the seqlock for
writing when either the task has a mempolicy, or the new mems has no
intersection with the old mems.

This should be enough to prevent a parallel allocation seeing no
available nodes, but the optimization is IMHO unnecessary (cpuset
updates should not be frequent), and we still potentially risk issues if
the intersection of new and old nodes has limited amount of
free/reclaimable memory.

Let's just use the seqlock for all tasks.
