From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> i915_gem_mmap_ioctl relies on mmap_sem for write. If the waiting task gets killed by the oom killer it would block oom_reaper from asynchronous address space reclaim and reduce the chances of timely OOM resolving. Wait for the lock in the killable mode and return with EINTR if the task got killed while waiting.
