------------------------------------------------------
Subject: oom: remove unnecessary code and cleanup
From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>

Remove the redundancy in __oom_kill_task() since:

 - init can never be passed to this function: it will never be PF_EXITING
   or selectable from select_bad_process(), and

 - it will never be passed a task from oom_kill_task() without an ->mm
   and we're unconcerned about detachment from exiting tasks, there's no
   reason to protect them against SIGKILL or access to memory reserves.

Also moves the kernel log message to a higher level since the verbosity is
not always emitted here; we need not print an error message if an exiting
task is given a longer timeslice.

__oom_kill_task() only has a single caller, so it can be merged into that
function at the same time.
