mm: Fix boot crash in mm_alloc()

Thomas Gleixner reports that we now have a boot crash triggered by
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y:

    BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at   (null)
    IP: [<c11ae035>] find_next_bit+0x55/0xb0
    Call Trace:
     [<c11addda>] cpumask_any_but+0x2a/0x70
     [<c102396b>] flush_tlb_mm+0x2b/0x80
     [<c1022705>] pud_populate+0x35/0x50
     [<c10227ba>] pgd_alloc+0x9a/0xf0
     [<c103a3fc>] mm_init+0xec/0x120
     [<c103a7a3>] mm_alloc+0x53/0xd0

which was introduced by commit de03c72cfce5 ("mm: convert
mm->cpu_vm_cpumask into cpumask_var_t"), and is due to wrong ordering of
mm_init() vs mm_init_cpumask

Thomas wrote a patch to just fix the ordering of initialization, but I
hate the new double allocation in the fork path, so I ended up instead
doing some more radical surgery to clean it all up.
