oom: introduce find_lock_task_mm() to fix !mm false positives

Almost all ->mm == NULL checks in oom_kill.c are wrong.

The current code assumes that the task without ->mm has already released
its memory and ignores the process.  However this is not necessarily true
when this process is multithreaded, other live sub-threads can use this
->mm.

- Remove the "if (!p->mm)" check in select_bad_process(), it is
  just wrong.

- Add the new helper, find_lock_task_mm(), which finds the live
  thread which uses the memory and takes task_lock() to pin ->mm

- change oom_badness() to use this helper instead of just checking
  ->mm != NULL.

- As David pointed out, select_bad_process() must never choose the
  task without ->mm, but no matter what oom_badness() returns the
  task can be chosen if nothing else has been found yet.

  Change oom_badness() to return int, change it to return -1 if
  find_lock_task_mm() fails, and change select_bad_process() to
  check points >= 0.

Note! This patch is not enough, we need more changes.

	- oom_badness() was fixed, but oom_kill_task() still ignores
	  the task without ->mm

	- oom_forkbomb_penalty() should use find_lock_task_mm() too,
	  and it also needs other changes to actually find the first
	  first-descendant children

This will be addressed later.
