KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki fadd8fbd15 [PATCH] support for panic at OOM
This patch adds panic_on_oom sysctl under sys.vm.

When sysctl vm.panic_on_oom = 1, the kernel panics intead of killing rogue
processes.  And if vm.panic_on_oom is 0 the kernel will do oom_kill() in
the same way as it does today.  Of course, the default value is 0 and only
root can modifies it.

In general, oom_killer works well and kill rogue processes.  So the whole
system can survive.  But there are environments where panic is preferable
rather than kill some processes.
