Michal Hocko 9bfe5ded05 mm, oom: remove sleep from under oom_lock 
Tetsuo has pointed out that since 27ae357fa8 ("mm, oom: fix concurrent
munlock and oom reaper unmap, v3") we have a strong synchronization
between the oom_killer and victim's exiting because both have to take
the oom_lock.  Therefore the original heuristic to sleep for a short
time in out_of_memory doesn't serve the original purpose.

Moreover Tetsuo has noticed that the short sleep can be more harmful
than actually useful.  Hammering the system with many processes can lead
to a starvation when the task holding the oom_lock can block for a long
time (minutes) and block any further progress because the oom_reaper
depends on the oom_lock as well.

Drop the short sleep from out_of_memory when we hold the lock.  Keep the
sleep when the trylock fails to throttle the concurrent OOM paths a bit.
This should be solved in a more reasonable way (e.g.  sleep proportional
to the time spent in the active reclaiming etc.) but this is much more
complex thing to achieve.  This is a quick fixup to remove a stale code.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
