Keith Owens reported a swap loop in 2.3.24 when swap is exausted, and
I confirmed this on my box. In 2.3.28 I tried exausting swap again,
and found that now the memory hog is always killed if it's a normal
memory eater. However, if I use shmtst posted by Manfred Spraul to
exaust swap, and the box hard locks. (will try semaphore deadlock
detection in ikd and see if it will oops)

doctor it hurts when I do that? :)
