[PATCH] bugfix oom kill init lead panic

From: chenjie6

From: chenjie <chenjie6@xxxxxxxxxx>

when oom happened we can see:
Out of memory: Kill process 9134 (init) score 3 or sacrifice child
Killed process 9134 (init) total-vm:1868kB, anon-rss:84kB, file-rss:572kB
Kill process 1 (init) sharing same memory
...
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000009

That's because:
the busybox init will vfork a process,oom_kill_process found
the init not the children,their mm is the same when vfork.
