Subject: oom: oom_kill_process() doesn't select kthread child
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2c5ea53ce46ebb232e0d9a475fdd2b166d2a516b;p=linux-beck.git

oom: oom_kill_process() doesn't select kthread child

Presently select_bad_process() has a PF_KTHREAD check, but
oom_kill_process doesn't.  It mean oom_kill_process() may choose wrong
task, especially, when the child are using use_mm().
