Bug Description
Step to reproduce:
1. Find a device with 1 GB memory.
2. If you don't have the Facebook application, login into Facebook using Browser.
3. Long swipe from the right edge and close all applications.
4. Open and suspend Dialer, Contacts, Camera, Clock, and Music in this order.
5. Either:
5.1 Open Browser and go to Facebook
5.2 Open Facebook application
then try to post a photo. Choose Gallary as the provider.
6. In Gallary, choose a photo and then press the tick.
Expected result: The photo is successfully transferred to Browser/Facebook.
Actual result: Browser/Facebook's process is killed, noticed by the blurry screenshot of Browser/Facebook.
More info:
While I'm in step 5, I take a look at browser's oom_adj and noticed that its value is 13, which is the same value as suspended application. I think the value for the application waiting for content, or even for the previous application, should be higher. (Android does have the concept of previous application.)
Device: LG L90 Dual (my port).
