[patch 02/12] mm: oom_kill: clean up victim marking and exiting interfaces

Johannes Weiner
2015-03-25T06:17:39Z

Rename unmark_oom_victim() to exit_oom_victim(). Marking and
unmarking are related in functionality, but the interface is not
symmetrical at all: one is an internal OOM killer function used during
the killing, the other is for an OOM victim to signal its own death on
exit later on. This has locking implications, see follow-up changes.

While at it, rename mark_tsk_oom_victim() to mark_oom_victim(), which
is easier on the eye.
