I think forcing bpf prog to look at every task is going to be limiting
long term.
It's more flexible to invoke bpf prog from out_of_memory()
and if it doesn't choose a task then fallback to select_bad_process().
I believe that's what Roman was proposing.
bpf can choose to iterate memcg or it might have some side knowledge
that there are processes that can be set as oc->chosen right away,
so it can skip the iteration.

IIUC, We may need some new bpf features if we want to iterating tasks/memcg in BPF, sush as:
bpf_for_each_task
bpf_for_each_memcg
bpf_for_each_task_in_memcg
...

It seems we have some work to do first in the BPF side.
Will these iterating features be useful in other BPF scenario except OOM Policy?

Thanks.
