oom, oom_reaper: disable oom_reaper for oom_kill_allocating_task
Tetsuo has reported that oom_kill_allocating_task=1 will cause
oom_reaper_list corruption because oom_kill_process doesn't follow
standard OOM exclusion (aka ignores TIF_MEMDIE) and allows to enqueue
the same task multiple times - e.g. by sacrificing the same child
multiple times.
This patch fixes the issue by introducing a new MMF_OOM_KILLED mm flag
which is set in oom_kill_process atomically and oom reaper is disabled
if the flag was already set.
