mm: mempolicy: require at least one nodeid for MPOL_PREFERRED

Using an empty (malformed) nodelist that is not caught during mount option
parsing leads to a stack-out-of-bounds access.

The option string that was used was: "mpol=prefer:,".  However,
MPOL_PREFERRED requires a single node number, which is not being provided
here.

Add a check that 'nodes' is not empty after parsing for MPOL_PREFERRED's
nodeid.

Fixes: 095f1fc4 ("mempolicy: rework shmem mpol parsing and display")
