It avoids hitting WARN(1) but does not avoid unnecessary killing of OOM victims. If you look at https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=CrashLog&x=15a1c770400000 , you will notice that both 23766 and 23767 are killed due to task_will_free_mem(current) == false. This is "unnecessary killing of additional processes".
