Not a problem, this is just a few lines of code. We can get rid of it
at any time.

I think it looks better at the beginning of new line, like this:

[   44.452955] Mem-Info:
[   44.453233] active_anon:2307 inactive_anon:36 isolated_anon:0
[   44.453233]  active_file:4120 inactive_file:4623 isolated_file:0
[   44.453233]  unevictable:0 dirty:6 writeback:0 unstable:0
[   44.453233]  slab_reclaimable:3500 slab_unreclaimable:7441
[   44.453233]  mapped:2113 shmem:45 pagetables:292 bounce:0
[   44.453233]  free:456891 free_pcp:12179 free_cma:0

In this order fields at each line have something in common.

I'll spend some some time playing with this code and oom log,
maybe I'll try to turn whole output into table or something.
