[patch 2/4] mm, oom: cleanup pagefault oom handler

[David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>]

To lock the entire system from parallel oom killing, it's possible to
pass in a zonelist with all zones rather than using
for_each_populated_zone() for the iteration.  This obsoletes
try_set_system_oom() and clear_system_oom() so that they can be removed.
