Can we please forget about oom_task_origin for _now_. At least until we
resolve the current pile? I am really skeptical oom_task_origin is a
real problem and even if you think it might be and pulling its handling
outside of oom_scan_process_thread would be better for other reasons we
can do that later. Or do you insist this all has to be done in one go?

To be honest, I feel less and less confident as the pile grows and
chances of introducing new bugs just grows after each rebase which tries
to address more subtle and unlikely issues.

Do no take me wrong but I would rather make sure that the current pile
is reviewed and no unintentional side effects are introduced than open
yet another can of worms.

Thanks!
