Those functions that use NODEMASK_ALLOC() can't propogate errno

Since all of them are called with cgroup_mutex held, here we use
a global nodemask_t variable.

I like the idea and the comment is explicit enough that we don't need any 
refcounting to ensure double usage under cgroup_lock.  I think each 
function should be modified to use cpuset_mems directly, though, instead 
of defining local variables that indirectly access it which only serves to 
make this patch smaller.  Then we can ensure that all occurrences of 
cpuset_mems appear within the lock without being concerned about other 
references.
