[patch v2 1/3] mm, oom: organize oom context into struct

From: David Rientjes
Date: Wed Jul 01 2015 - 17:37:25 EST


There are essential elements to an oom context that are passed around to
multiple functions.

Organize these elements into a new struct, struct oom_control, that
specifies the context for an oom condition.

This patch introduces no functional change.
