Syzbot instance running on upstream kernel found a use-after-free bug in
oom_kill_process. On further inspection it seems like the process
selected to be oom-killed has exited even before reaching
read_lock(&tasklist_lock) in oom_kill_process(). More specifically the
tsk->usage is 1 which is due to get_task_struct() in oom_evaluate_task()
and the put_task_struct within for_each_thread() frees the tsk and
for_each_thread() tries to access the tsk. The easiest fix is to do
get/put across the for_each_thread() on the selected task.
Now the next question is should we continue with the oom-kill as the
previously selected task has exited? However before adding more
complexity and heuristics, let's answer why we even look at the children
of oom-kill selected task? The select_bad_process() has already selected
the worst process in the system/memcg. Due to race, the selected
process might not be the worst at the kill time but does that matter?
The userspace can use the oom_score_adj interface to prefer children to
be killed before the parent. I looked at the history but it seems like
this is there before git history.

Arkadiusz reported that enabling memcg's group oom killing causes
strange memcg statistics where there is no task in a memcg despite the
number of tasks in that memcg is not 0. It turned out that there is a
bug in wake_oom_reaper() which allows enqueuing same task twice which
makes impossible to decrease the number of tasks in that memcg due to a
refcount leak.
This bug existed since the OOM reaper became invokable from
task_will_free_mem(current) path in out_of_memory() in Linux 4.7,

but memcg's group oom killing made it easier to trigger this bug by

Fix this bug using an approach used by commit 855b018325 ("oom,

side effect of this patch, this patch also avoids enqueuing multiple

The current oom report doesn't display victim's memcg context during the
global OOM situation. While this information is not strictly needed, it
can be really helpful for containerized environments to locate which
container has lost a process. Now that we have a single line for the oom
context, we can trivially add both the oom memcg (this can be either
global_oom or a specific memcg which hits its hard limits) and task_memcg
which is the victim's memcg.
Below is the single line output in the oom report after this patch.
- global oom context information:
oom-kill:constraint=<constraint>,nodemask=<nodemask>,cpuset=<cpuset>,mems_allowed=<mems_allowed>,global_oom,task_memcg=<memcg>,task=<comm>,pid=<pid>,uid=<uid>
- memcg oom context information:

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
"I have been slowly sorting out siginfo and this is the culmination of
that work.
The primary result is in several ways the signal infrastructure has
been made less error prone. The code has been updated so that manually
specifying SEND_SIG_FORCED is never necessary. The conversion to the
new siginfo sending functions is now complete, which makes it
difficult to send a signal without filling in the proper siginfo
fields.
At the tail end of the patchset comes the optimization of decreasing
the size of struct siginfo in the kernel from 128 bytes to about 48
bytes on 64bit. The fundamental observation that enables this is by
definition none of the known ways to use struct siginfo uses the extra
bytes.
This comes at the cost of a small user space observable difference.
For the rare case of siginfo being injected into the kernel only what
can be copied into kernel_siginfo is delivered to the destination, the
rest of the bytes are set to 0. For cases where the signal and the
si_code are known this is safe, because we know those bytes are not
used. For cases where the signal and si_code combination is unknown
the bits that won't fit into struct kernel_siginfo are tested to
verify they are zero, and the send fails if they are not.
I made an extensive search through userspace code and I could not find
anything that would break because of the above change. If it turns out
I did break something it will take just the revert of a single change
to restore kernel_siginfo to the same size as userspace siginfo.
Testing did reveal dependencies on preferring the signo passed to
sigqueueinfo over si->signo, so bit the bullet and added the
complexity necessary to handle that case.
Testing also revealed bad things can happen if a negative signal
number is passed into the system calls. Something no sane application
will do but something a malicious program or a fuzzer might do. So I
have fixed the code that performs the bounds checks to ensure negative
signal numbers are handled"
* 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (80 commits)
signal: Guard against negative signal numbers in copy_siginfo_from_user32

...
Now that siginfo is never allocated for SIGKILL and SIGSTOP there is
no difference between SEND_SIG_PRIV and SEND_SIG_FORCED for SIGKILL
and SIGSTOP. This makes SEND_SIG_FORCED unnecessary and redundant in
the presence of SIGKILL and SIGSTOP. Therefore change users of
SEND_SIG_FORCED that are sending SIGKILL or SIGSTOP to use
SEND_SIG_PRIV instead.
This removes the last users of SEND_SIG_FORCED.

notifiers. This however didn't call tlb_finish_mmu as it should.
As a result inc_tlb_flush_pending has been called without its pairing
dec_tlb_flush_pending and all callers mm_tlb_flush_pending would flush
even though this is not really needed. This alone is not harmful and it
seems there shouldn't be any such callers for oom victims at all but
there is no real reason to skip tlb_finish_mmu on early skip either so
call it.

When the memcg OOM killer runs out of killable tasks, it currently
prints a WARN with no further OOM context. This has caused some user
confusion.
Warnings indicate a kernel problem. In a reported case, however, the
situation was triggered by a nonsensical memcg configuration (hard limit
set to 0). But without any VM context this wasn't obvious from the
report, and it took some back and forth on the mailing list to identify
what is actually a trivial issue.
Handle this OOM condition like we handle it in the global OOM killer:
dump the full OOM context and tell the user we ran out of tasks.
This way the user can identify misconfigurations easily by themselves
and rectify the problem - without having to go through the hassle of
running into an obscure but unsettling warning, finding the appropriate
kernel mailing list and waiting for a kernel developer to remote-analyze
that the memcg configuration caused this.
If users cannot make sense of why the OOM killer was triggered or why it
failed, they will still report it to the mailing list, we know that from
experience. So in case there is an actual kernel bug causing this,
kernel developers will very likely hear about it.

For some workloads an intervention from the OOM killer can be painful.
Killing a random task can bring the workload into an inconsistent state.
Historically, there are two common solutions for this
problem:
1) enabling panic_on_oom,
2) using a userspace daemon to monitor OOMs and kill
all outstanding processes.
Both approaches have their downsides: rebooting on each OOM is an obvious
waste of capacity, and handling all in userspace is tricky and requires a
userspace agent, which will monitor all cgroups for OOMs.
In most cases an in-kernel after-OOM cleaning-up mechanism can eliminate
the necessity of enabling panic_on_oom. Also, it can simplify the cgroup
management for userspace applications.
This commit introduces a new knob for cgroup v2 memory controller:
memory.oom.group. The knob determines whether the cgroup should be
treated as an indivisible workload by the OOM killer. If set, all tasks
belonging to the cgroup or to its descendants (if the memory cgroup is not
a leaf cgroup) are killed together or not at all.
To determine which cgroup has to be killed, we do traverse the cgroup
hierarchy from the victim task's cgroup up to the OOMing cgroup (or root)
and looking for the highest-level cgroup with memory.oom.group set.
Tasks with the OOM protection (oom_score_adj set to -1000) are treated as
an exception and are never killed.
This patch doesn't change the OOM victim selection algorithm.

Patch series "introduce memory.oom.group", v2.
This is a tiny implementation of cgroup-aware OOM killer, which adds an
ability to kill a cgroup as a single unit and so guarantee the integrity
of the workload.
Although it has only a limited functionality in comparison to what now
resides in the mm tree (it doesn't change the victim task selection
algorithm, doesn't look at memory stas on cgroup level, etc), it's also
much simpler and more straightforward. So, hopefully, we can avoid having
long debates here, as we had with the full implementation.
As it doesn't prevent any futher development, and implements an useful and
complete feature, it looks as a sane way forward.
This patch (of 2):
oom_kill_process() consists of two logical parts: the first one is
responsible for considering task's children as a potential victim and
printing the debug information. The second half is responsible for
sending SIGKILL to all tasks sharing the mm struct with the given victim.
This commit splits oom_kill_process() with an intention to re-use the the
second half: __oom_kill_process().
The cgroup-aware OOM killer will kill multiple tasks belonging to the
victim cgroup. We don't need to print the debug information for the each
task, as well as play with task selection (considering task's children),
so we can't use the existing oom_kill_process().

Andrew has noticed some inconsistencies in oom_reap_task_mm. Notably
- Undocumented return value.
- comment "failed to reap part..." is misleading - sounds like it's
referring to something which happened in the past, is in fact
referring to something which might happen in the future.
- fails to call trace_finish_task_reaping() in one case
- code duplication.
- Increases mmap_sem hold time a little by moving
trace_finish_task_reaping() inside the locked region. So sue me ;)
- Sharing the finish: path means that the trace event won't
distinguish between the two sources of finishing.
Add a short explanation for the return value and fix the rest by
reorganizing the function a bit to have unified function exit paths.

oom_reaper used to rely on the oom_lock since e2fe14564d ("oom_reaper:
close race with exiting task"). We do not really need the lock anymore
though. 2129258024 ("mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run
concurrently") has removed serialization with the exit path based on the
mm reference count and so we do not really rely on the oom_lock anymore.
Tetsuo was arguing that at least MMF_OOM_SKIP should be set under the lock
to prevent from races when the page allocator didn't manage to get the
freed (reaped) memory in __alloc_pages_may_oom but it sees the flag later
on and move on to another victim. Although this is possible in principle
let's wait for it to actually happen in real life before we make the
locking more complex again.
Therefore remove the oom_lock for oom_reaper paths (both exit_mmap and
oom_reap_task_mm). The reaper serializes with exit_mmap by mmap_sem +
MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. There is no synchronization with out_of_memory path
now.

There are several blockable mmu notifiers which might sleep in
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start and that is a problem for the
oom_reaper because it needs to guarantee a forward progress so it cannot
depend on any sleepable locks.
Currently we simply back off and mark an oom victim with blockable mmu
notifiers as done after a short sleep. That can result in selecting a new
oom victim prematurely because the previous one still hasn't torn its
memory down yet.
We can do much better though. Even if mmu notifiers use sleepable locks
there is no reason to automatically assume those locks are held. Moreover
majority of notifiers only care about a portion of the address space and
there is absolutely zero reason to fail when we are unmapping an unrelated
range. Many notifiers do really block and wait for HW which is harder to
handle and we have to bail out though.
This patch handles the low hanging fruit.
__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start gets a blockable flag and callbacks
are not allowed to sleep if the flag is set to false. This is achieved by
using trylock instead of the sleepable lock for most callbacks and
continue as long as we do not block down the call chain.
I think we can improve that even further because there is a common pattern
to do a range lookup first and then do something about that. The first
part can be done without a sleeping lock in most cases AFAICS.
The oom_reaper end then simply retries if there is at least one notifier
which couldn't make any progress in !blockable mode. A retry loop is
already implemented to wait for the mmap_sem and this is basically the
same thing.
The simplest way for driver developers to test this code path is to wrap
userspace code which uses these notifiers into a memcg and set the hard
limit to hit the oom. This can be done e.g. after the test faults in all
the mmu notifier managed memory and set the hard limit to something really
small. Then we are looking for a proper process tear down.

Pull core signal handling updates from Eric Biederman:
"It was observed that a periodic timer in combination with a
sufficiently expensive fork could prevent fork from every completing.
This contains the changes to remove the need for that restart.
This set of changes is split into several parts:
- The first part makes PIDTYPE_TGID a proper pid type instead
something only for very special cases. The part starts using
PIDTYPE_TGID enough so that in __send_signal where signals are
actually delivered we know if the signal is being sent to a a group
of processes or just a single process.
- With that prep work out of the way the logic in fork is modified so
that fork logically makes signals received while it is running
appear to be received after the fork completes"

Tetsuo has pointed out that since 27ae357fa8 ("mm, oom: fix concurrent
munlock and oom reaper unmap, v3") we have a strong synchronization
between the oom_killer and victim's exiting because both have to take
the oom_lock. Therefore the original heuristic to sleep for a short
time in out_of_memory doesn't serve the original purpose.
Moreover Tetsuo has noticed that the short sleep can be more harmful
than actually useful. Hammering the system with many processes can lead
to a starvation when the task holding the oom_lock can block for a long
time (minutes) and block any further progress because the oom_reaper
depends on the oom_lock as well.
Drop the short sleep from out_of_memory when we hold the lock. Keep the
sleep when the trylock fails to throttle the concurrent OOM paths a bit.
This should be solved in a more reasonable way (e.g. sleep proportional
to the time spent in the active reclaiming etc.) but this is much more
complex thing to achieve. This is a quick fixup to remove a stale code.

Commit e27be240df ("mm: memcg: make sure memory.events is uptodate
when waking pollers") converted most of memcg event counters to
per-memcg atomics, which made them less confusing for a user. The
"oom_kill" counter remained untouched, so now it behaves differently
than other counters (including "oom"). This adds nothing but confusion.
Let's fix this by adding the MEMCG_OOM_KILL event, and follow the
MEMCG_OOM approach.
This also removes a hack from count_memcg_event_mm(), introduced earlier
specially for the OOM_KILL counter.

Since exit_mmap() is done without the protection of mm->mmap_sem, it is
possible for the oom reaper to concurrently operate on an mm until
MMF_OOM_SKIP is set.
This allows munlock_vma_pages_all() to concurrently run while the oom
reaper is operating on a vma. Since munlock_vma_pages_range() depends
on clearing VM_LOCKED from vm_flags before actually doing the munlock to
determine if any other vmas are locking the same memory, the check for
VM_LOCKED in the oom reaper is racy.
This is especially noticeable on architectures such as powerpc where
clearing a huge pmd requires serialize_against_pte_lookup(). If the pmd
is zapped by the oom reaper during follow_page_mask() after the check
for pmd_none() is bypassed, this ends up deferencing a NULL ptl or a
kernel oops.
Fix this by manually freeing all possible memory from the mm before
doing the munlock and then setting MMF_OOM_SKIP. The oom reaper can not
run on the mm anymore so the munlock is safe to do in exit_mmap(). It
also matches the logic that the oom reaper currently uses for
determining when to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, so there's no new risk of
excessive oom killing.
This issue fixes CVE-2018-1000200.

Since the 2.6 kernel, the oom killer has slightly biased away from
CAP_SYS_ADMIN processes by discounting some of its memory usage in
comparison to other processes.
This has always been implicit and nothing exactly relies on the
behavior.
Gaurav notices that __task_cred() can dereference a potentially freed
pointer if the task under consideration is exiting because a reference
to the task_struct is not held.
Remove the CAP_SYS_ADMIN bias so that all processes are treated equally.
If any CAP_SYS_ADMIN process would like to be biased against, it is
always allowed to adjust /proc/pid/oom_score_adj.

Tetsuo Handa has noticed that the synchronization inside exit_mmap is
insufficient. We only synchronize with the oom reaper if
tsk_is_oom_victim which is not true if the final __mmput is called from
a different context than the oom victim exit path. This can trivially
happen from context of any task which has grabbed mm reference (e.g. to
read /proc/<pid>/ file which requires mm etc.).
The race would look like this
oom_reaper oom_victim task
mmget_not_zero
do_exit
mmput
__oom_reap_task_mm mmput
__mmput
exit_mmap
remove_vma
unmap_page_range
Fix this issue by providing a new mm_is_oom_victim() helper which
operates on the mm struct rather than a task. Any context which
operates on a remote mm struct should use this helper in place of
tsk_is_oom_victim. The flag is set in mark_oom_victim and never cleared
so it is stable in the exit_mmap path.

tlb_gather_mmu(&tlb, mm, 0, -1) means gathering the whole virtual memory
space. In this case, tlb->fullmm is true. Some archs like arm64
doesn't flush TLB when tlb->fullmm is true:
commit 5a7862e830 ("arm64: tlbflush: avoid flushing when fullmm == 1").
Which causes leaking of tlb entries.
Will clarifies his patch:
"Basically, we tag each address space with an ASID (PCID on x86) which
is resident in the TLB. This means we can elide TLB invalidation when
pulling down a full mm because we won't ever assign that ASID to
another mm without doing TLB invalidation elsewhere (which actually
just nukes the whole TLB).
I think that means that we could potentially not fault on a kernel
uaccess, because we could hit in the TLB"
There could be a window between complete_signal() sending IPI to other
cores and all threads sharing this mm are really kicked off from cores.
In this window, the oom reaper may calls tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly() to
flush TLB then frees pages. However, due to the above problem, the TLB
entries are not really flushed on arm64. Other threads are possible to
access these pages through TLB entries. Moreover, a copy_to_user() can
also write to these pages without generating page fault, causes
use-after-free bugs.
This patch gathers each vma instead of gathering full vm space. In this
case tlb->fullmm is not true. The behavior of oom reaper become similar
to munmapping before do_exit, which should be safe for all archs.

Currently, we account page tables separately for each page table level,
but that's redundant -- we only make use of total memory allocated to
page tables for oom_badness calculation. We also provide the
information to userspace, but it has dubious value there too.
This patch switches page table accounting to single counter.
mm->pgtables_bytes is now used to account all page table levels. We use
bytes, because page table size for different levels of page table tree
may be different.
The change has user-visible effect: we don't have VmPMD and VmPUD
reported in /proc/[pid]/status. Not sure if anybody uses them. (As
alternative, we can always report 0 kB for them.)
OOM-killer report is also slightly changed: we now report pgtables_bytes
instead of nr_ptes, nr_pmd, nr_puds.
Apart from reducing number of counters per-mm, the benefit is that we
now calculate oom_badness() more correctly for machines which have
different size of page tables depending on level or where page tables
are less than a page in size.
The only downside can be debuggability because we do not know which page
table level could leak. But I do not remember many bugs that would be
caught by separate counters so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.

On a machine with 5-level paging support a process can allocate
significant amount of memory and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and memory
cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PUD page tables. We don't
account PUD page tables, only PMD and PTE.
We already addressed the same issue for PMD page tables, see commit

Introduction of 5-level paging brings the same issue for PUD page
tables.

Andrea has noticed that the oom_reaper doesn't invalidate the range via
mmu notifiers (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end) and that can
corrupt the memory of the kvm guest for example.
tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly already invokes mmu notifiers but that is not
sufficient as per Andrea:
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end. For KVM
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so. A MMU
notifier implementation has to implement either ->invalidate_range
method or the invalidate_range_start/end methods, not both. And if you
implement invalidate_range_start/end like KVM is forced to do, calling
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in common code is a noop for KVM.
For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing
->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs
that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD iommuv2)
can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range"
As the callback is allowed to sleep and the implementation is out of
hand of the MM it is safer to simply bail out if there is an mmu
notifier registered. In order to not fail too early make the
mm_has_notifiers check under the oom_lock and have a little nap before
failing to give the current oom victim some more time to exit.

This is purely required because exit_aio() may block and exit_mmap() may
never start, if the oom_reap_task cannot start running on a mm with
mm_users == 0.
At the same time if the OOM reaper doesn't wait at all for the memory of
the current OOM candidate to be freed by exit_mmap->unmap_vmas, it would
generate a spurious OOM kill.
If it wasn't because of the exit_aio or similar blocking functions in
the last mmput, it would be enough to change the oom_reap_task() in the
case it finds mm_users == 0, to wait for a timeout or to wait for
__mmput to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, but it's not just exit_mmap the
problem here so the concurrency of exit_mmap and oom_reap_task is
apparently warranted.
It's a non standard runtime, exit_mmap() runs without mmap_sem, and
oom_reap_task runs with the mmap_sem for reading as usual (kind of
MADV_DONTNEED).
The race between the two is solved with a combination of
tsk_is_oom_victim() (serialized by task_lock) and MMF_OOM_SKIP
(serialized by a dummy down_write/up_write cycle on the same lines of
the ksm_exit method).
If the oom_reap_task() may be running concurrently during exit_mmap,
exit_mmap will wait it to finish in down_write (before taking down mm
structures that would make the oom_reap_task fail with use after free).
If exit_mmap comes first, oom_reap_task() will skip the mm if
MMF_OOM_SKIP is already set and in turn all memory is already freed and
furthermore the mm data structures may already have been taken down by
free_pgtables.

For ages we have been relying on TIF_MEMDIE thread flag to mark OOM
victims and then, among other things, to give these threads full access
to memory reserves. There are few shortcomings of this implementation,
though.
First of all and the most serious one is that the full access to memory
reserves is quite dangerous because we leave no safety room for the
system to operate and potentially do last emergency steps to move on.
Secondly this flag is per task_struct while the OOM killer operates on
mm_struct granularity so all processes sharing the given mm are killed.
Giving the full access to all these task_structs could lead to a quick
memory reserves depletion. We have tried to reduce this risk by giving
TIF_MEMDIE only to the main thread and the currently allocating task but
that doesn't really solve this problem while it surely opens up a room
for corner cases - e.g. GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests might loop inside the
allocator without access to memory reserves because a particular thread
was not the group leader.
Now that we have the oom reaper and that all oom victims are reapable
after 1b51e65eab ("oom, oom_reaper: allow to reap mm shared by the
kthreads") we can be more conservative and grant only partial access to
memory reserves because there are reasonable chances of the parallel
memory freeing. We still want some access to reserves because we do not
want other consumers to eat up the victim's freed memory. oom victims
will still contend with __GFP_HIGH users but those shouldn't be so
aggressive to starve oom victims completely.
Introduce ALLOC_OOM flag and give all tsk_is_oom_victim tasks access to
the half of the reserves. This makes the access to reserves independent
on which task has passed through mark_oom_victim. Also drop any usage
of TIF_MEMDIE from the page allocator proper and replace it by
tsk_is_oom_victim as well which will make page_alloc.c completely
TIF_MEMDIE free finally.
CONFIG_MMU=n doesn't have oom reaper so let's stick to the original
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS approach.
There is a demand to make the oom killer memcg aware which will imply
many tasks killed at once. This change will allow such a usecase
without worrying about complete memory reserves depletion.

During the debugging of the problem described in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/17/542 and fixed by Tetsuo Handa in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/19/383 , I've found that the existing debug
output is not really useful to understand issues related to the oom
reaper.
So, I assume, that adding some tracepoints might help with debugging of
similar issues.
Trace the following events:
1) a process is marked as an oom victim,
2) a process is added to the oom reaper list,
3) the oom reaper starts reaping process's mm,
4) the oom reaper finished reaping,
5) the oom reaper skips reaping.
How it works in practice? Below is an example which show how the problem
mentioned above can be found: one process is added twice to the
oom_reaper list:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ echo "oom:mark_victim" > set_event
$ echo "oom:wake_reaper" >> set_event
$ echo "oom:skip_task_reaping" >> set_event
$ echo "oom:start_task_reaping" >> set_event
$ echo "oom:finish_task_reaping" >> set_event
$ cat trace_pipe

Show count of oom killer invocations in /proc/vmstat and count of
processes killed in memory cgroup in knob "memory.events" (in
memory.oom_control for v1 cgroup).
Also describe difference between "oom" and "oom_kill" in memory cgroup
documentation. Currently oom in memory cgroup kills tasks iff shortage
has happened inside page fault.
These counters helps in monitoring oom kills - for now the only way is
grepping for magic words in kernel log.

Tetsuo has reported that sysrq triggered OOM killer will print a
misleading information when no tasks are selected:
sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
Out of memory: Kill process 4468 ((agetty)) score 0 or sacrifice child
Killed process 4468 ((agetty)) total-vm:43704kB, anon-rss:1760kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
Out of memory: Kill process 4469 (systemd-cgroups) score 0 or sacrifice child
Killed process 4469 (systemd-cgroups) total-vm:10704kB, anon-rss:120kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
The real reason is that there are no eligible tasks for the OOM killer
to select but since commit 7c5f64f844 ("mm: oom: deduplicate victim
selection code for memcg and global oom") the semantic of out_of_memory
has changed without updating moom_callback.
This patch updates moom_callback to tell that no task was eligible which
is the case for both oom killer disabled and no eligible tasks. In
order to help distinguish first case from the second add printk to both
oom_killer_{enable,disable}. This information is useful on its own
because it might help debugging potential memory allocation failures.

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&\1\);/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Commit 82e7d3abec ("oom: print nodemask in the oom report") implicitly
sets the allocation nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed when there
is no effective mempolicy. cpuset_current_mems_allowed is only
effective when cpusets are enabled, which is also printed by
dump_header(), so setting the nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed is
redundant and prevents debugging issues where ac->nodemask is not set
properly in the page allocator.
This provides better debugging output since
cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed() is already provided.
