oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to signal_struct
Currently, OOM logic callflow is here. __out_of_memory() select_bad_process() for each task badness() calculate badness of one task oom_kill_process() search child oom_kill_task() kill target task and mm shared tasks with it example, process-A have two thread, thread-A and thread-B and it have very fat memory and each thread have following oom_adj and oom_score. thread-A: oom_adj = OOM_DISABLE, oom_score = 0 thread-B: oom_adj = 0, oom_score = very-high Then, select_bad_process() select thread-B, but oom_kill_task() refuse kill the task because thread-A have OOM_DISABLE. Thus __out_of_memory() call select_bad_process() again. but select_bad_process() select the same task. It mean kernel fall in livelock. The fact is, select_bad_process() must select killable task. otherwise OOM logic go into livelock. And root cause is, oom_adj shouldn't be per-thread value. it should be per-process value because OOM-killer kill a process, not thread. Thus This patch moves oomkilladj (now more appropriately named oom_adj) from struct task_struct to struct signal_struct. it naturally prevent select_bad_process() choose wrong task.
