That's obviously false since we call oom_killer_disable() in 
freeze_processes() to disable the oom killer from ever being called in the 
first place, so this is something you need to resolve with Rafael before 
you cause more machines to panic.
I didn't mean suspend/resume path (that is protected by oom_killer_disabled)
so the patch doesn't make any change.
Confused... freeze_processes() does try_to_freeze_tasks() before
oom_killer_disable() ?

Oleg.
