Memory controller: OOM handling

Out of memory handling for cgroups over their limit. A task from the
cgroup over limit is chosen using the existing OOM logic and killed.

TODO:
1. As discussed in the OLS BOF session, consider implementing a user
space policy for OOM handling.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build due to oom-killer changes]
