Security: Kernel OOM-killer and allocation denial use different rules

Original patch created by Leonid Moiseichuk <leonid.moiseichuk@nokia.com>

Fixes the issue with the oom killer and lowmem module being inconsistent;
processes that are important enough to be protected from the oom killer should
not be denied memory either.
