Title:
  Kernel fails to execute code for killing OOM task if
  oom_kill_allocating_task = 0

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The problem is thoroughly described in this question:
  http://askubuntu.com/q/398236/20275

  Steps to reproduce:
  Make sure oom_kill_allocating_task = 0 (it's the default configuration)
  cat /proc/sys/vm/oom_kill_allocating_task
  echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/oom_kill_allocating_task
  Disable your swap to make the test faster.
  Fill your RAM.
  After that the machine will freeze completely forever spinning HDD for some reason and thus slowly degrading it.
