memcg: fix wake up in oom wait queue
OOM-waitqueue should be waken up when oom_disable is canceled. This is a
fix for 3c11ecf448eff8f1 ("memcg: oom kill disable and oom status").
How to test:
Create a cgroup A...
1. set memory.limit and memory.memsw.limit to be small value
2. echo 1 > /cgroup/A/memory.oom_control, this disables oom-kill.
3. run a program which must cause OOM.
A program executed in 3 will sleep by oom_waiqueue in memcg. Then, how to
wake it up is problem.
1. echo 0 > /cgroup/A/memory.oom_control (enable OOM-killer)
2. echo big mem > /cgroup/A/memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes(allow more swap)
etc..
Without the patch, a task in slept can not be waken up.
