The move precharge function does some baroque things: it tries raw res_counter charging of the entire amount first, and then falls back to a loop of one-by-one charges, with checks for pending signals and cond_resched() batching. Just use mem_cgroup_try_charge() without __GFP_WAIT for the first bulk charge attempt. In the one-by-one loop, remove the signal check (this is already checked in try_charge), and simply call cond_resched() after every charge - it's not that expensive.
