oom: decouple mems_allowed from oom_unkillable_task

Commit ef08e3b ("[PATCH] cpusets: confine oom_killer to
mem_exclusive cpuset") introduces a heuristic where a potential
oom-killer victim is skipped if the intersection of the potential victim
and the current (the process triggered the oom) is empty based on the
reason that killing such victim most probably will not help the current
allocating process.

However the commit 7887a3d ("[PATCH] oom: cpuset hint") changed the
heuristic to just decrease the oom_badness scores of such potential
victim based on the reason that the cpuset of such processes might have
changed and previously they may have allocated memory on mems where the
current allocating process can allocate from.

Unintentionally 7887a3d ("[PATCH] oom: cpuset hint") introduced a
side effect as the oom_badness is also exposed to the user space through
/proc/[pid]/oom_score, so, readers with different cpusets can read
different oom_score of the same process.

Later, commit 6cf86ac ("oom: filter tasks not sharing the same
cpuset") fixed the side effect introduced by 7887a3d by moving the
cpuset intersection back to only oom-killer context and out of
oom_badness.  However the combination of ab290ad ("oom: make
oom_unkillable_task() helper function") and 26ebc98 ("oom:
/proc/<pid>/oom_score treat kernel thread honestly") unintentionally
brought back the cpuset intersection check into the oom_badness
calculation function.

Other than doing cpuset/mempolicy intersection from oom_badness, the memcg
oom context is also doing cpuset/mempolicy intersection which is quite
wrong and is caught by syzcaller with the following report:

The fix is to decouple the cpuset/mempolicy intersection check from
oom_unkillable_task() and make sure cpuset/mempolicy intersection check is
only done in the global oom context.
