mm: Don't warn on page allocation failures for OOM-killed processes
It can be normal for a dying process to have its page allocation request fail when it has an OOM or LMK kill pending. In this case, it's actually detrimental to print out a massive allocation failure message because this means the running process needs to die quickly and release its memory, which is slowed down slightly by the massive kmsg splat. The allocation failure message is also a false positive in this case, since the failure is intentional rather than being the result of an inability to allocate memory. Suppress the allocation failure warning for processes that are killed to release memory in order to expedite their death and remedy the kmsg confusion from seeing spurious allocation failure messages.
