oom: thaw the OOM victim if it is frozen

Browse Source 
oom_kill_process only sets TIF_MEMDIE flag and sends a signal to the
victim.  This is basically noop when the task is frozen though because the
task sleeps in the uninterruptible sleep.  The victim is eventually thawed
later when oom_scan_process_thread meets the task again in a later OOM
invocation so the OOM killer doesn't live lock.  But this is less than
optimal.

Let's add __thaw_task into mark_tsk_oom_victim after we set TIF_MEMDIE to
the victim.  We are not checking whether the task is frozen because that
would be racy and __thaw_task does that already.  oom_scan_process_thread
doesn't need to care about freezer anymore as TIF_MEMDIE and freezer are
excluded completely now.
