So I think you're saying that

mm-oom-marks-all-killed-tasks-as-oom-victims.patch
and
memcg-do-not-report-racy-no-eligible-oom-tasks.patch

should be dropped and that "[PATCH v2] memcg: killed threads should not
invoke memcg OOM killer" should be redone with some changelog
alterations and should be merged instead?
