Anton Blanchard 42639269f9 [PATCH] mm: quieten OOM killer noise
We now print statistics when invoking the OOM killer, however this
information is not rate limited and you can get into situations where the
console is continually spammed.

For example, when a task is exiting the OOM killer will simply return
(waiting for that task to exit and clear up memory).  If the VM continually
calls back into the OOM killer we get thousands of copies of show_mem() on
the console.

Use printk_ratelimit() to quieten it.

* Thanks go out to Claus Fischer for some serious inspiration and
* for goading me into coding this file...
*
* The routines in this file are used to kill a process when
* we're seriously out of memory. This gets called from kswapd()
* in linux/mm/vmscan.c when we really run out of memory.
*
* Since we won't call these routines often (on a well-configured
* machine) this file will double as a 'coding guide' and a signpost
* for newbie kernel hackers. It features several pointers to major
* kernel subsystems and hints as to where to find out what things do.

* oom_badness - calculate a numeric value for how bad this task has been
* @p: task struct of which task we should calculate
* @p: current uptime in seconds
*
* The formula used is relatively simple and documented inline in the
* function. The main rationale is that we want to select a good task
* to kill when we run out of memory.
*
* Good in this context means that:
* 1) we lose the minimum amount of work done
* 2) we recover a large amount of memory
* 3) we don't kill anything innocent of eating tons of memory
* 4) we want to kill the minimum amount of processes (one)
* 5) we try to kill the process the user expects us to kill, this
* algorithm has been meticulously tuned to meet the principle
* of least surprise ... (be careful when you change it)
