Subject: memcg: avoid oom-killing innocent task in case of use_hierarchy
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d31f56dbf8bafaacb0c617f9a6f137498d5c7aed;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

memcg: avoid oom-killing innocent task in case of use_hierarchy

task_in_mem_cgroup(), which is called by select_bad_process() to check
whether a task can be a candidate for being oom-killed from memcg's limit,
checks "curr->use_hierarchy"("curr" is the mem_cgroup the task belongs
to).

But this check return true(it's false positive) when:

	<some path>/aa		use_hierarchy == 0	<- hitting limit
	  <some path>/aa/00	use_hierarchy == 1	<- the task belongs to

This leads to killing an innocent task in aa/00.  This patch is a fix for
this bug.  And this patch also fixes the arg for
mem_cgroup_print_oom_info().  We should print information of mem_cgroup
which the task being killed, not current, belongs to.
