When OOM searches for a process to kill, ignore the processes already
killed by OOM. When killed process waits for a page allocation, try to
satisfy the request as fast as possible.
This removes the often encountered deadlock, where OOM continously
selects the same victim process, that sleeps uninterruptibly waiting
for a page. The killed process may still sleep if page cannot be
obtained immediately, but testing has shown that system has much
higher chance to survive in OOM situation with the patch.
