Here invoke OOM protection in fork_testrun, since it is the key point
to distiguish many process branches. We do protect main ($PID) process
from killing by OOM Killer, hope this can help to get the completed
correct report for all of LTP tests.
Fundamental principle:
ltp test harness --> library process
(oom protection) main --> tst_run_tcases --> ... --> fork_testrun
(cancel protection) testrun --> run_tests --> ... --> testname
child_test --> ... --> end
