Hi,
this is an updated version of the patchset previous posted here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=141779771518056&w=2. 
Changes since then are:
- cleanups, doc and function renames as per Tejun
- __thaw_task moved to mark_tsk_oom_victim and frozen() check removed
  as it would be racy and it is not necessary anyway - per Tejun
- obvious typo in wait_event condition
- oom_killer_enable moved to thaw_processes before user tasks are thawed
  rather than thaw_kernel_threads which is even not called from s2ram resume
  path - per Tejun
- oom_killer_disable moved to freeze_processes to be more in sync with
  the enable.

I have tested the series in KVM with 100M RAM:
- many small tasks (20M anon mmap) which are triggering OOM continually
- s2ram which resumes automatically is triggered in a loop
	echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
	while true
	do
		echo mem > /sys/power/state
		sleep 1s
	done
- simple module which allocates and frees 20M in 8K chunks. If it sees
  freezing(current) then it tries another round of allocation before calling
  try_to_freeze
- debugging messages of PM stages and OOM killer enable/disable/fail added
  and unmark_oom_victim is delayed by 1s after it clears TIF_MEMDIE and before
  it wakes up waiters.
- rebased on top of the current mmotm which means some necessary updates
  in mm/oom_kill.c. mark_tsk_oom_victim is now called under task_lock but
  I think this should be OK because __thaw_task shouldn't interfere with any
  locking down wake_up_process. Oleg?

As expected there are no OOM killed tasks after oom is disabled and
allocations requested by the kernel thread are failing after all the
tasks are frozen and OOM disabled. I wasn't able to catch a race where
oom_killer_disable would really have to wait but I kinda expected the
race is really unlikely.

The first 2 patches are simple cleanups for OOM. They should go in
regardless the rest IMO.
Patches 3 and 4 are trivial printk -> pr_info conversion and they should
go in ditto.
The main patch is the last one and I would appreciate acks from Tejun
and Rafael. I think the OOM part should be OK (except for __thaw_task
vs. task_lock where a look from Oleg would appreciated) but I am not
so sure I haven't screwed anything in the freezer code. I have found
several surprises there.

The patchset is based on the current mmotm tree (mmotm-2015-01-07-17-07).
I think it make more sense if it is routed via Andrew due to dependences on
other OOM killer patches.

Shortlog says:
Michal Hocko (5):
      oom: add helpers for setting and clearing TIF_MEMDIE
      oom: thaw the OOM victim if it is frozen
      PM: convert printk to pr_* equivalent
      sysrq: convert printk to pr_* equivalent
      oom, PM: make OOM detection in the freezer path raceless
