[patch] mm, oom: remove gfp helper function

From: David Rientjes
Date: Wed Nov 26 2014 - 17:17:39 EST


Commit b9921ecdee66 ("mm: add a helper function to check may oom
condition") was added because the gfp criteria for oom killing was
checked in both the page allocator and memcg.

That was true for about nine months, but then commit 0029e19ebf84 ("mm:
memcontrol: remove explicit OOM parameter in charge path") removed the
memcg usecase.

Fold the implementation into its only caller.
