At the present time, when showing potential OOM victims, we do not
exclude tasks which already have MMF_OOM_SKIP set; it is possible that
the last OOM killable victim was already OOM killed, yet the OOM
reaper failed to reclaim memory and set MMF_OOM_SKIP.
This can be confusing/or perhaps even misleading, to the reader of the
OOM report. Now, we already unconditionally display a task's
oom_score_adj_min value that can be set to OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MIN which is
indicative of an "unkillable" task i.e. is not eligible.

This patch provides a clear indication with regard to the OOM
eligibility of each displayed task.

A minor nit:

"oom eligible?" has 13 characters. The field width is 15. Maybe you should pad 2 more spaces to make the proper alignment.
