[PATCH v15 0/3] mm: Reduce latency of OOM killer task selection

[Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>]

Hi Andrew,

This series use the hierarchical tree counter approximation (hpcc) to
implement the OOM killer task selection with a 2-pass algorithm. This is
a latency reduction improvement of the OOM killer task selection.

Testing the execution time of select_bad_process() with a single
tail -f /dev/zero:

    AMD EPYC 9654 96-Core (2 sockets)
    Within a KVM, configured with 256 logical cpus.

                                      | precise sum |   hpcc   |
    ----------------------------------|-------------|----------|
    nr_processes=40                   |    0.5 ms   |   0.3 ms |
    nr_processes=10000                |   80.0 ms   |   7.9 ms |

Notable changes for v15: This series becomes a OOM killer latency
improvement, rather than a bug fix.

This series is based on v6.19-rc4, on top of the following three
preparation series:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20251224173810.648699-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com/T/#t
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20260113194734.28983-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com/T/#t

This series replaces v14, aimed at mm-new.

Thanks,

Matheu
