[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/1] package/earlyoom: new package

Joseph Kogut joseph.kogut at gmail.com

EarlyOOM daemon for triggering Linux OOM killer before running out of
memory, avoiding situations where the machine becomes unresponsive from
out of control swapping.

Some desktop distributions are installing and enabling this daemon by
default to prevent unresponsive machines in OOM scenarios.
