Subject: [PATCH 4/6] mm,oom: exclude oom_task_origin processes if they are OOM-unkillable.

oom_scan_process_thread() returns OOM_SCAN_SELECT when there is a
thread which returns oom_task_origin() == true. But it is possible
that that thread is marked as OOM-unkillable.

This patch changes oom_scan_process_thread() not to select it
if it is marked as OOM-unkillable.
