David, could you test with this patch please?

Subject: [PATCH] mm, oom_reaper: fix memory corruption

David Rientjes has reported the following memory corruption while the
oom reaper tries to unmap the victims address space
BUG: Bad page map in process oom_reaper  pte:6353826300000000 pmd:00000000
addr:00007f50cab1d000 vm_flags:08100073 anon_vma:ffff9eea335603f0 mapping:          (null) index:7f50cab1d
file:          (null) fault:          (null) mmap:          (null) readpage:          (null)
CPU: 2 PID: 1001 Comm: oom_reaper
Call Trace:
 [<ffffffffa4bd967d>] dump_stack+0x4d/0x70
 [<ffffffffa4a03558>] unmap_page_range+0x1068/0x1130
 [<ffffffffa4a2e07f>] __oom_reap_task_mm+0xd5/0x16b
 [<ffffffffa4a2e226>] oom_reaper+0xff/0x14c
 [<ffffffffa48d6ad1>] kthread+0xc1/0xe0

Tetsuo Handa has noticed that the synchronization inside exit_mmap is
insufficient. We only synchronize with the oom reaper if tsk_is_oom_victim
which is not true if the final __mmput is called from a different context
than the oom victim exit path. This can trivially happen from context of
any task which has grabbed mm reference (e.g. to read /proc/<pid>/ file
which requires mm etc.). The race would look like this

oom_reaper		oom_victim		task
						mmget_not_zero
			do_exit
			  mmput
__oom_reap_task_mm				mmput
  						  __mmput
						    exit_mmap
						      remove_vma
  unmap_page_range

Fix this issue by providing a new mm_is_oom_victim() helper which operates
on the mm struct rather than a task. Any context which operates on a remote
mm struct should use this helper in place of tsk_is_oom_victim. The flag is
set in mark_oom_victim and never cleared so it is stable in the exit_mmap
path.
