[PATCH] mm: Always print RLIMIT_DATA warning

From: David Woodhouse
Date: Tue Feb 06 2018 - 11:50:01 EST


The documentation for ignore_rlimit_data says that it will print a warning
at first misuse. Yet it doesn't seem to do that. Fix the code to print
the warning even when we allow the process to continue.

We should probably also do what Linus suggested in
