[patch] oom: kill all threads that share mm with killed task

From: David Rientjes
Date: Tue Apr 24 2007 - 00:36:56 EST


oom_kill_task() calls __oom_kill_task() to OOM kill a selected task.
When finding other threads that share an mm with that task, we need to
kill those individual threads and not the same one.
