Subject: oom: oom_forkbomb_penalty: move thread_group_cputime() out of task_lock()
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

It doesn't make sense to call thread_group_cputime() under task_lock(), we
can drop this lock right after we read get_mm_rss() and save the value in
the local variable.

Note: probably it makes more sense to use sum_exec_runtime instead
of utime + stime, it is much more precise. A task can eat a lot of
CPU time, but its Xtime can be zero.
