Tasks that do not share the same set of allowed nodes with the task that triggered the oom should not be considered as candidates for oom kill. Tasks in other cpusets with a disjoint set of mems would be unfairly penalized otherwise because of oom conditions elsewhere; an extreme example could unfairly kill all other applications on the system if a single task in a user's cpuset sets itself to OOM_DISABLE and then uses more memory than allowed. Killing tasks outside of current's cpuset rarely would free memory for current anyway. Signed-off-by: David Rientjes<rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>
