oom: give current access to memory reserves if it has been killed

It's possible to livelock the page allocator if a thread has mm->mmap_sem
and fails to make forward progress because the oom killer selects another
thread sharing the same ->mm to kill that cannot exit until the semaphore
is dropped.

The oom killer will not kill multiple tasks at the same time; each oom
killed task must exit before another task may be killed.  Thus, if one
thread is holding mm->mmap_sem and cannot allocate memory, all threads
sharing the same ->mm are blocked from exiting as well.  In the oom kill
case, that means the thread holding mm->mmap_sem will never free
additional memory since it cannot get access to memory reserves and the
thread that depends on it with access to memory reserves cannot exit
because it cannot acquire the semaphore.  Thus, the page allocators
livelocks.

When the oom killer is called and current happens to have a pending
SIGKILL, this patch automatically gives it access to memory reserves and
returns.  Upon returning to the page allocator, its allocation will
hopefully succeed so it can quickly exit and free its memory.  If not, the
page allocator will fail the allocation if it is not __GFP_NOFAIL.
