If current thread got Ctrl-C and thus current thread can terminate, what is nice with waiting for the OOM killer? If there are several OOM events in multiple memcg domains waiting for completion of printk() messages? I don't see points with waiting for oom_lock, for try_charge() already allows current thread to terminate due to fatal_signal_pending() test.
