I have queued this, thank you all!

However, memcg_oom_wake_function() does not yet exist in the tree
I am using, and is_target_pte_for_mc() has changed. I omitted the
hunk for memcg_oom_wake_function() and edited the hunk for
is_target_pte_for_mc().

I have queued this for others' testing, but if you would rather carry
this patch up the memcg path, please let me know and I will drop it.

Thanx, Paul
