[dm-devel] [RESEND][PATCH] multipath: add support for setting oom_score_adj

[Benjamin Marzinski]

The oom_adj procfs interface is deprecated. I've added support for using the
new oom_score_adj interface.  The code still falls back to using oom_adj
if oom_score_adj doesn't exist.

Resending, since I was obviously working far too late last night.
