By code inspection.

If our assumption is that the OOM reaper can reclaim majority of OOM
victim's memory via victim's ->signal->oom_mm, what will be wrong with
simply reverting 212925802454672e ("mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and
exit_mmap run concurrently") and replace mmgrab()/mmdrop_async() with
mmget()/mmput_async() so that the OOM reaper no longer need to worry
about tricky __mmput() behavior (like shown below) ?

----------
If holding the address space when there are so many victim's mm waiting for
the OOM reaper to reclaim is considered dangerous, I think we can try direct
OOM reaping (like untested patch shown below) in order to reclaim first-blocked
first-reaped basis (and also serve as a mitigation for race caused by removing
oom_lock from the OOM reaper).
