Johannes Weiner 94bce453c7 arch: mm: remove obsolete init OOM protection ... The memcg code can trap tasks in the context of the failing allocation until an OOM situation is resolved. They can hold all kinds of locks (fs, mm) at this point, which makes it prone to deadlocking. This series converts memcg OOM handling into a two step process that is started in the charge context, but any waiting is done after the fault stack is fully unwound. Patches 1-4 prepare architecture handlers to support the new memcg requirements, but in doing so they also remove old cruft and unify out-of-memory behavior across architectures. Patch 5 disables the memcg OOM handling for syscalls, readahead, kernel faults, because they can gracefully unwind the stack with -ENOMEM. OOM handling is restricted to user triggered faults that have no other option. Patch 6 reworks memcg's hierarchical OOM locking to make it a little more obvious wth is going on in there: reduce locked regions, rename locking functions, reorder and document. Patch 7 implements the two-part OOM handling such that tasks are never trapped with the full charge stack in an OOM situation. This patch: Back before smart OOM killing, when faulting tasks were killed directly on allocation failures, the arch-specific fault handlers needed special protection for the init process. Now that all fault handlers call into the generic OOM killer (see commit 609838cfed: "mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page fault handlers"), which already provides init protection, the arch-specific leftovers can be removed.
