oom: only oom kill exiting tasks with attached memory 

When a task is chosen for oom kill and is found to be PF_EXITING,
__oom_kill_task() is called to elevate the task's timeslice and give it
access to memory reserves so that it may quickly exit.

This privilege is unnecessary, however, if the task has already detached
its mm.  Although its possible for the mm to become detached later since
task_lock() is not held, __oom_kill_task() will simply be a no-op in such
circumstances.

Subsequently, it is no longer necessary to warn about killing mm-less
tasks since it is a no-op.
