Tetsuo,

I'll try to actually read this series later, although I will leave the
actual review to maintainers anyway...

Just a couple of questions for now,

Is it strictly necessary? At first glance not. Sooner or later oom_reaper() should
find this mm_struct and do exit_oom_mm(). And given that mm->mm_users is already 0
the "extra" __oom_reap_vmas() doesn't really hurt.

It would be nice to remove exit_oom_mm() from __mmput(); it takes the global spinlock
for the very unlikely case, and if we can avoid it here then perhaps we can remove
->oom_mm from mm_struct.

Oleg.
