Michal Hocko e26796066f oom: make oom_reaper freezable
After "oom: clear TIF_MEMDIE after oom_reaper managed to unmap the
address space" oom_reaper will call exit_oom_victim on the target task
after it is done.  This might however race with the PM freezer:

CPU0				CPU1				CPU2
freeze_processes
  try_to_freeze_tasks
  				# Allocation request
				out_of_memory
  oom_killer_disable
				  wake_oom_reaper(P1)
				  				__oom_reap_task
								  exit_oom_victim(P1)
    wait_event(oom_victims==0)
[...]
    				do_exit(P1)
				  perform IO/interfere with the freezer

which breaks the oom_killer_disable semantic.  We no longer have a
guarantee that the oom victim won't interfere with the freezer because
it might be anywhere on the way to do_exit while the freezer thinks the
task has already terminated.  It might trigger IO or touch devices which
are frozen already.

In order to close this race, make the oom_reaper thread freezable.  This
will work because
	a) already running oom_reaper will block freezer to enter the
	   quiescent state
	b) wake_oom_reaper will not wake up the reaper after it has been
	   frozen
	c) the only way to call exit_oom_victim after try_to_freeze_tasks
	   is from the oom victim's context when we know the further
	   interference shouldn't be possible
