Yafang Shao 765437d1f0 mm, oom: make the calculation of oom badness more accurate
[ Upstream commit 9066e5cfb73cdbcdbb49e87999482ab615e9fc76 ]

Recently we found an issue on our production environment that when memcg
oom is triggered the oom killer doesn't chose the process with largest
resident memory but chose the first scanned process.  Note that all
processes in this memcg have the same oom_score_adj, so the oom killer
should chose the process with largest resident memory.

Bellow is part of the oom info, which is enough to analyze this issue.

[7516987.984254] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 5740 (pause) total-vm:1028kB, anon-rss:4kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
[7516988.092344] oom_reaper: reaped process 5740 (pause), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB

We can find that the first scanned process 5740 (pause) was killed, but
its rss is only one page.  That is because, when we calculate the oom
badness in oom_badness(), we always ignore the negtive point and convert
all of these negtive points to 1.  Now as oom_score_adj of all the
processes in this targeted memcg have the same value -998, the points of
these processes are all negtive value.  As a result, the first scanned
process will be killed.

The oom_socre_adj (-998) in this memcg is set by kubelet, because it is a
a Guaranteed pod, which has higher priority to prevent from being killed
by system oom.

To fix this issue, we should make the calculation of oom point more
accurate.  We can achieve it by convert the chosen_point from 'unsigned
long' to 'long'.
