Thanks! It woudl be really great if this was a part of the report when
testing patches which are not mainline yet.

This patch resulting in a crash is quite surprising. The patch is RFC
and not tested yet but I will definitely have a look. Could you help me
some more and give faddr2line __oom_reap_task_mm+0x40 please?
