The following 3 patches were developed while working on the OOM/Futex
fix. 

Patch 1: This is a nonfunctional change. The vma_is_anonymous function
originally led to some confusion about what the oom reaper is checking
for in __oom_reap_task_mm. This patch makes that function name more 
verbose.

Patch 2: Futex cleanup was designed with silent failures. Printing this
failure would have led to more quickly finding the issue. This
introduces a pr_info if the exit path has any issues walking the
userspace list.

Patch 3: During the debug process I noticed that the oom_reap_task_mm
function was always running twice for the same mm_struct; Once in the
exit path and once in the oom_reaper. By checking the MMF_OOM_SKIP we
can prevent these unnecissary double calls. I'd like some input from
David Rientjes here with regards to CVE-2018-1000200, I want to make
sure we are not reintroducing that CVE.
