sched/numa: Be more careful about joining numa groups
Due to the way the pid is truncated, and tasks are moved between CPUs by the scheduler, it is possible for the current task_numa_fault to group together tasks that do not actually share memory together. This patch adds a few easy sanity checks to task_numa_fault, joining tasks together if they share the same tsk->mm, or if the fault was on a page with an elevated mapcount, in a shared VMA.
