get_user_pages() can try to allocate a nearly unlimited amount of memory on behalf of a user process, even if that process has been OOM killed. The OOM kill occurs upon return to user space via a SIGKILL, but get_user_pages() will try allocate all its memory before returning. Change get_user_pages() to check for TIF_MEMDIE, and if set then return immediately.
