oom: /proc/<pid>/oom_score treat kernel thread honestly
If a kernel thread is using use_mm(), badness() returns a positive value. This is not a big issue because caller take care of it correctly. But there is one exception, /proc/<pid>/oom_score calls badness() directly and doesn't care that the task is a regular process. Another example, /proc/1/oom_score return !0 value. But it's unkillable. This incorrectness makes administration a little confusing. This patch fixes it.
