    Subject[patch 27/31] oom fix: prevent oom from killing a process with children/sibling unkillable
    -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

    [PATCH] oom fix: prevent oom from killing a process with children/sibling unkillable

    Looking at oom_kill.c, found that the intention to not kill the selected
    process if any of its children/siblings has OOM_DISABLE set, is not being
    met.
