coredump_wait waits for mmap_sem for write currently which can prevent oom_reaper to reclaim the oom victims address space asynchronously because that requires mmap_sem for read. This might happen if the oom victim is multi threaded and some thread(s) is holding mmap_sem for read (e.g. page fault) and it is stuck in the page allocator while other thread(s) reached coredump_wait already. This patch simply uses down_write_killable and bails out with EINTR if the lock got interrupted by the fatal signal. do_coredump will return right away and do_group_exit will take care to zap the whole thread group.
