[patch 02/32] oom: kill all threads that share mm with killed task

[Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org>]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
---------------------

From: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>

oom_kill_task() calls __oom_kill_task() to OOM kill a selected task.
When finding other threads that share an mm with that task, we need to
kill those individual threads and not the same one.
