mm, mempolicy: task->mempolicy must be NULL before dropping final reference

KASAN allocates memory from the page allocator as part of
kmem_cache_free(), and that can reference current->mempolicy through any
number of allocation functions.  It needs to be NULL'd out before the
final reference is dropped to prevent a use-after-free bug:

	BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in alloc_pages_current+0x363/0x370 at addr ffff88010b48102c
	CPU: 0 PID: 15425 Comm: trinity-c2 Not tainted 4.8.0-rc2+ #140
	...
	Call Trace:
		dump_stack
		kasan_object_err
		kasan_report_error
		__asan_report_load2_noabort
		alloc_pages_current	<-- use after free
		depot_save_stack
		save_stack
		kasan_slab_free
		kmem_cache_free
		__mpol_put		<-- free
		do_exit

This patch sets current->mempolicy to NULL before dropping the final
reference.
