Yeah, the only thing that sets TIF_MEMDIE is the oom killer and it 
immediately SIGKILLs it afterwards.

Aside: I've been thinking of adding a check to the page allocator for 
!(gfp & __GFP_FS) && !(gfp & __GFP_NORETRY) to set TIF_MEMDIE for current 
if it has a fatal signal since such an allocation isn't eligible for 
calling into the oom killer.
