[PATCH] add OOM debug

[Janet Morgan <janetmor@us.ibm.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 234 bytes --]

This patch provides more debug info when the system is OOM.   It displays
memory stats (basically sysrq-m info) from __alloc_pages() when page 
allocation
fails and during OOM kill.

Thanks to Dave Jones for coming up with the idea.
