From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: replace TIF_MEMDIE checks by tsk_is_oom_victim TIF_MEMDIE is set only to the tasks whick were either directly selected by the OOM killer or passed through mark_oom_victim from the allocator path. tsk_is_oom_victim is more generic and allows to identify all tasks (threads) which share the mm with the oom victim. Please note that the freezer still needs to check TIF_MEMDIE because we cannot thaw tasks which do not participage in oom_victims counting otherwise a !TIF_MEMDIE task could interfere after oom_disbale returns.
