[PATCH 02/13] oom: take per file badness into account

From: Andrey Grodzovsky <andrey.grodzovsky at amd.com>

Try to make better decisions which process to kill based on
per file OOM badness. For this the per file oom badness is queried from
every file which supports that and divided by the number of references to
that file structure.
