Thank you for very kindly bug report.
Unfortunatelly I didn't notice this ugly crap driver.

Yes, you are right. it should be reverted too.


Linus, can you please consider to apply following revert patch?

============================================
Subject: [PATCH] Revert android: lowmemorykiller.c: fix it for "oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct"

commit 0753ba01 (mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value") reverted some
regression patch. but it didn't revert one strange oom retrieved driver patch.

Then, it made build error on this android driver.

This reverts commit a6a9f81ccc9f5c86ccc22bbed1960a57d0316e8b too and
fixes the build error.
