Slab poisoning gave me a General Protection Fault on the atomic_dec(&__task_cred(p)->user->processes); line of release_task() called from wait_task_zombie(), every time my dd to USB testing generated a memcg OOM.

oom_kill_process() now does the put_task_struct(), mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() should not repeat it.
Good catch. I have missed that during review - my bad...
