Filtering zonelists requires very frequent use of zone_idx(). This is costly
as it involves a lookup of another structure and a substraction operation. As
the zone_idx is often required, it should be quickly accessible. The node idx
could also be stored here if it was found that accessing zone->node is
significant which may be the case on workloads where nodemasks are heavily
used.
This patch introduces a struct zoneref to store a zone pointer and a zone
index. The zonelist then consists of an array of these struct zonerefs which
are looked up as necessary. Helpers are given for accessing the zone index as
well as the node index.

It's not necessary to include all of linux/sched.h in linux/oom.h. Instead,
simply include prototypes for the relevant structs and include linux/types.h
for gfp_t.

OOM killer synchronization should be done with zone granularity so that memory
policy and cpuset allocations may have their corresponding zones locked and
allow parallel kills for other OOM conditions that may exist elsewhere in the
system. DMA allocations can be targeted at the zone level, which would not be
possible if locking was done in nodes or globally.
Synchronization shall be done with a variation of "trylocks." The goal is to
put the current task to sleep and restart the failed allocation attempt later
if the trylock fails. Otherwise, the OOM killer is invoked.
Each zone in the zonelist that __alloc_pages() was called with is checked for
the newly-introduced ZONE_OOM_LOCKED flag. If any zone has this flag present,
the "trylock" to serialize the OOM killer fails and returns zero. Otherwise,
all the zones have ZONE_OOM_LOCKED set and the try_set_zone_oom() function
returns non-zero.

The OOM killer's CONSTRAINT definitions are really more appropriate in an
enum, so define them in include/linux/oom.h.

Move the OOM killer's extern function prototypes to include/linux/oom.h and
include it where necessary.

Despite mm.h is not being exported header, it does contain one thing
which is part of userspace ABI -- value disabling OOM killer for given
process. So,
a) create and export include/linux/oom.h
b) move OOM_DISABLE define there.
c) turn bounding values of /proc/$PID/oom_adj into defines and export
them too.
Note: mass __KERNEL__ removal will be done later.
