Browse source 
Move the lowmemorykiller.txt into the actual source file which is really the
correct place for it, and delete lowmemorykiller.txt.

* The lowmemorykiller driver lets user-space specify a set of memory thresholds
* where processes with a range of oom_adj values will get killed. Specify the
* minimum oom_adj values in /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj and the
* number of free pages in /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree. Both
* files take a comma separated list of numbers in ascending order.
*
* For example, write "0,8" to /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj and
* "1024,4096" to /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree to kill processes
* with a oom_adj value of 8 or higher when the free memory drops below 4096 pages
* and kill processes with a oom_adj value of 0 or higher when the free memory
* drops below 1024 pages.
*
* The driver considers memory used for caches to be free, but if a large
* percentage of the cached memory is locked this can be very inaccurate
* and processes may not get killed until the normal oom killer is triggered.
