Subject: mm: avoid null-pointer deref in sync_mm_rss()

- We weren't zeroing p->rss_stat[] at fork()

- Consequently sync_mm_rss() was dereferencing tsk->mm for kernel
  threads and was oopsing.

- Make __sync_task_rss_stat() static, too.

Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15648

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove the BUG_ON(!mm->rss)]
