Subject[17/63] oom: skip zombies when iterating tasklist
2.6.38-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org>

commit 30e2b41f20b6238f51e7cffb879c7a0f0073f5fe upstream.

We shouldn't defer oom killing if a thread has already detached its ->mm
and still has TIF_MEMDIE set. Memory needs to be freed, so find kill
other threads that pin the same ->mm or find another task to kill.
