Subject: [PATCH 4/4] oom: don't kill random process
CAI Qian reported oom-killer killed all system daemons in his
system at first if he ran fork bomb as root. The problem is,
current logic give them bonus of 3% of system ram. Example,
he has 16GB machine, then root processes have ~500MB oom
immune. It bring us crazy bad result. _all_ processes have
oom-score=1 and then, oom killer ignore process memroy usage
and kill random process. This regression is caused by commit
a63d83f427 (oom: badness heuristic rewrite).
This patch changes select_bad_process() slightly. If oom points == 1,
it's a sign that the system have only root privileged processes or
similar. Thus, select_bad_process() calculate oom badness without
root bonus and select eligible process.
