[PATCH] OOM killer meets userspace headers 



Despite mm.h is not being exported header, it does contain one thing
which is part of userspace ABI -- value disabling OOM killer for given
process. So,
a) create and export include/linux/oom.h
b) move OOM_DISABLE define there.
c) turn bounding values of /proc/$PID/oom_adj into defines and export
   them too.

Note: mass __KERNEL__ removal will be done later.
