You want a different task_struct because the returned one might be
different from the given one and you already hold a reference which you
do not want to leak

This is too late to check for MMF_OOM_SKIP. task_will_free_mem will fail
with the flag being set. I believe you want something like the
following:

	p = find_lock_task_mm(task);
	mm = p->mm;

	/* The work has been done already */
	if (test_bit(MMF_OOM_SKIP, &mm->flags)) {
		task_unlock(p);	
		goto put_task;
	}

	i
	if (!task_will_free_mem(p)) {
		task_unlock(p);	
		goto put_task;
	}

	mmget(mm);
	task_unlock(p);
