The changelog is quite modest to be honest. I would go with

"
dump_tasks() traverses all the existing processes even for the memcg OOM
context which is not only unnecessary but also wasteful. This imposes
a long RCU critical section even from a contained context which can be
quite disruptive.

Change dump_tasks() to be aligned with select_bad_process and use
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks to selectively traverse only processes of the
target memcg hierarchy during memcg OOM.
