mm, oom: remove oom_lock from oom_reaper

Browse Source 
oom_reaper used to rely on the oom_lock since e2fe14564d ("oom_reaper:
close race with exiting task").  We do not really need the lock anymore
though.  2129258024 ("mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run
concurrently") has removed serialization with the exit path based on the
mm reference count and so we do not really rely on the oom_lock anymore.

Tetsuo was arguing that at least MMF_OOM_SKIP should be set under the lock
to prevent from races when the page allocator didn't manage to get the
freed (reaped) memory in __alloc_pages_may_oom but it sees the flag later
on and move on to another victim.  Although this is possible in principle
let's wait for it to actually happen in real life before we make the
locking more complex again.

Therefore remove the oom_lock for oom_reaper paths (both exit_mmap and
oom_reap_task_mm).  The reaper serializes with exit_mmap by mmap_sem +
MMF_OOM_SKIP flag.  There is no synchronization with out_of_memory path
now.

[mhocko@kernel.org: oom_reap_task_mm should return false when __oom_reap_task_mm did]
