During Numa scanning make sure only relevant vmas of the tasks are scanned. Before: All the tasks of a process participate in scanning the vma even if they do not access vma in it's lifespan. Now: Except cases of first few unconditional scans, if a process do not touch vma (exluding false positive cases of PID collisions) tasks no longer scan all vma Logic used: 1) 6 bits of PID used to mark active bit in vma numab status during fault to remember PIDs accessing vma. (Thanks Mel) 2) Subsequently in scan path, vma scanning is skipped if current PID had not accessed vma. 3) First two times we do allow unconditional scan to preserve earlier behaviour of scanning.
