[PATCH] OOM killer meets userspace headers

[Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>]

Despite mm.h is not being exported header, it does contain one thing
which is part of userspace ABI -- value disabling OOM killer. So,
a) export mm.h to userspace
b) got OOM_DISABLE disable define out of __KERNEL__ prison.
c) turn bound values suitable for /proc/$PID/oom_adj into defines and export
   them too.
d) put some headers into __KERNEL__ prison. It'd bizarre to include mm.h and
   get capability stuff.
