Sorry, I have no clue what you're talking about or trying to fix.

A /proc/pid/oom_score_adj of -941 would mean discounting 94.1% of system 
memory from pid's resident memory usage for a system oom condition.  This 
is the effect of adj *= totalpages / 1000 and is working as intended per 
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt.

oom_badness() will then return the smallest integer possible, 1 (not 0), 
that still allows the process to be killed, that's the effect of 
"return points > 0 ? points : 1".  It never returns 0 as you state, you're 
either not reading the code correctly or not working on any recent kernel.
