[patch 1/6] arch: mm: remove obsolete init OOM protection

[Johannes Weiner]

Back before smart OOM killing, when faulting tasks where killed
directly on allocation failures, the arch-specific fault handlers
needed special protection for the init process.

Now that all fault handlers call into the generic OOM killer (609838c
"mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page fault
handlers"), which already provides init protection, the arch-specific
leftovers can be removed.
