proc: allocate storage for numa_maps statistics once

In show_numa_map() we collect statistics into a numa_maps structure.
Since the number of NUMA nodes can be very large, this structure is not a
candidate for stack allocation.

Instead of going thru a kmalloc()+kfree() cycle each time show_numa_map()
is invoked, perform the allocation just once when /proc/pid/numa_maps is
opened.

Performing the allocation when numa_maps is opened, and thus before a
reference to the target tasks mm is taken, eliminates a potential
stalemate condition in the oom-killer as originally described by Hugh
Dickins:

  ... imagine what happens if the system is out of memory, and the mm
  we're looking at is selected for killing by the OOM killer: while
  we wait in __get_free_page for more memory, no memory is freed
  from the selected mm because it cannot reach exit_mmap while we hold
  that reference.
