Subject: mm, oom: remove unnecessary check for NULL zonelist
If the pagefault handler is modified to pass a non-NULL zonelist then an
unnecessary check for a NULL zonelist in constrained_alloc() can be
removed.
This also causes panic_on_oom == 1 to not panic the machine when the
pagefault is constrained by the mems of current's cpuset. That behavior
agrees with the semantics of the sysctl in Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt.
