memcg: fix wake up in oom wait queue 

OOM-waitqueue should be waken up when oom_disable is canceled.  This is a
fix for 3c11ecf448 ("memcg: oom kill disable and oom status").

How to test:
 Create a cgroup A...
 1. set memory.limit and memory.memsw.limit to be small value
 2. echo 1 > /cgroup/A/memory.oom_control, this disables oom-kill.
 3. run a program which must cause OOM.

A program executed in 3 will sleep by oom_waiqueue in memcg.  Then, how to
wake it up is problem.

 1. echo 0 > /cgroup/A/memory.oom_control (enable OOM-killer)
 2. echo big mem > /cgroup/A/memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes(allow more swap)

etc..

Without the patch, a task in slept can not be waken up.
