OK, then we were talking past each other, I am afraid. I really wanted
to get rid of this oom specific stuff from exit_mmap. It was there out
of necessity. With a proper locking we can finally get rid of the crud.
As I've said previously oom reaping has never been a hot path.
If we really want to optimize this path then I would much rather see a
generic solution which would allow to move the write lock down after
unmap_vmas. That would require oom reaper to be able to handle mlocked
memory.
