The checks for the scan time in task_mm_cid_work are now superfluous
since the task runs in a delayed_work and the minimum periodicity is
already implied.

This patch removes those checks and the field from the mm_struct.

Additionally, we include a simple check to quickly terminate the
function if we have no work to be done (i.e. no mm_cid is allocated).
This is helpful for tasks that sleep for a long time, but also for
terminated task. We are no longer following the process' state, hence
the function continues to run after a process terminates but before its
mm is freed.

Can you fold it in patch 1/4 ?

Thanks,

Mathieu
