Here is my naive idea...

Subject: [PATCH] [Don't Apply][PATCH] memcg relax resource at OOM situation.

When an OOM happens, a task is killed and resources will be freed.

A problem here is that a task, which is oom-killed, may wait for
some other resource in which memory resource is required. Some thread
waits for free memory may holds some mutex and oom-killed process
wait for the mutex.

To avoid this, relaxing charged memory by giving virtual resource
can be a help. The system can get back it at uncharge().
This is a sample native implementation.
