From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>

Replace the remaining manual rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs
in oom_cpuset_eligible(), select_bad_process(), dump_tasks(),
task_will_free_mem(), and __oom_kill_process() with scoped_guard(rcu)
for consistency and simpler control flow.  scoped_guard(rcu) limits
the RCU critical section to the loop body rather than the entire
remaining function scope, making the protected region explicit and
safer for future changes.

v2:
 - Use scoped_guard instead of guard.
