I think we don't need to worry about mmap_sem dependency inside __mmput(). Since the OOM killer checks for !MMF_OOM_SKIP mm rather than TIF_MEMDIE thread, we can keep the OOM killer disabled until we set MMF_OOM_SKIP to the victim's mm. That is, elevating mm_users throughout the reaping procedure does not cause premature victim selection, even after TIF_MEMDIE is cleared from the victim's thread. Then, we don't need to use down_write()/up_write() for non OOM victim's mm (nearly 100% of exit_mmap() calls), and can force partial reaping of OOM victim's mm (nearly 0% of exit_mmap() calls) before __mmput() starts doing exit_aio() etc. Patch is shown below.
