oom_reaper: avoid pointless atomic_inc_not_zero usage.
Since commit 36324a990cf5 ("oom: clear TIF_MEMDIE after oom_reaper managed to unmap the address space") changed to use find_lock_task_mm() for finding a mm_struct to reap, it is guaranteed that mm->mm_users > 0 because find_lock_task_mm() returns a task_struct with ->mm != NULL. Therefore, we can safely use atomic_inc().
