This passes all functional testing that I have and I can create a 
synthetic testcase that can trigger at least MMF_OOM_VICTIM getting set 
while oom_reaper is still working on an mm that this prevents, so feel 
free to add an

with a variant of your previous changelogs.  Thanks!

I think it would appropriate to cc stable for 4.14 and add a

concurrently")

if nobody disagrees, which I think you may have already done on a previous 
iteration.

We can still discuss if there are any VM_LOCKED subtleties in the this 
thread, but I have no evidence that it is responsible for any issues.
