I fixed a potential oom deadlock and some omm related bug in the VM at
2.2.10 time. Unfortunately it's not been merged in the stock kernel yet
(it also breaks all architectures and I fixed only i386 and Alpha as I
don't have access to other hardware).
Please apply this my fix and give us back any positive/negative feedback.
