Very sorry, this patch doesn't includes changes to oom.h...

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hioryu@...fujitsu.com>

Fixing node-oriented allocation handling in oom-kill.c
I myself think this as bugfix not as ehnancement.

In these days, things are changed as
  - alloc_pages() eats nodemask as its arguments, __alloc_pages_nodemask().
  - mempolicy don't maintain its own private zonelists.
  (And cpuset doesn't use nodemask for __alloc_pages_nodemask())

So, current oom-killer's check function is wrong.

This patch does
  - check nodemask, if nodemask && nodemask != node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]
    this is never be CONSTRAINT_NONE. We assume this from mempolicy.
  - Scan all zonelist under nodemask, if it hits cpuset's wall
    this faiulre is from cpuset.
And
  - modifies the caller of out_of_memory not to call oom if __GFP_THISNODE.
    This doesn't change "current" behavior.
    If callers use __GFP_THISNODE, it should handle "page allocation failure"
    by itself.

Changelog: 2009/11/06
 - fixed lack of oom.h
