something has preempted because oom_badness() becomes outside of RCU grace

Hi Tetsuo,
Yes it is not easy to reproduce seen twice till now and i agree with
your analysis. But David has already fixing this in different way,
So that also looks better to me:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10265641/
Yes, I'm aware of that patch.
But if need to keep that code, So we have to bump up the task
reference that's only i can think of now.
I don't think so, for I think it is safe to call
has_capability_noaudit(p) with p->alloc_lock held.

Earlier i have thought the same to post this, but this may create
problem if there are sleeping calls in
has_capability_noaudit ?
