memcg: fix oops in oom handling
When I used a test program to fork mass processes and immediately move them to
a cgroup where the memory limit is low enough to trigger oom kill, I got oops:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000808

It's reproducable in a x86_64 box, but doesn't happen in x86_32.
This is because tsk->sighand is not guarded by RCU, so we have to
hold tasklist_lock, just as what out_of_memory() does.
