The patch titled
oom: use unreclaimable info
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
oom-use-unreclaimable-info.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: oom: use unreclaimable info
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>
__alloc_pages currently starts shooting if page reclaim has failed to free up
swap_cluster_max pages in one run through the priorities. This is not always
a good indicator on its own, so make use of the all_unreclaimable logic as
well: don't consider going OOM until all zones we're interested in are
unreclaimable.
