From: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
<linux/mempolicy.h> uses struct mm_struct and relies on a definition or
declaration somehow magically being dragged in which may result in a
build:
[...]

Including <linux/sched.h> is a step into direction of include hell so
fixed by adding a forward declaration of struct mm_struct instead.
