Looping in mem_cgroup_resize_limit(), which takes memcg_limit_mutex on 
every iteration which contends with lowering limits in other cgroups (on 
our systems, thousands), calling try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages() with less 
than SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX is lame.  It would probably be best to limit the 
nr_pages to the amount that needs to be reclaimed, though, rather than 
over reclaiming.

If you wanted to be invasive, you could change page_counter_limit() to 
return the count - limit, fix up the callers that look for -EBUSY, and 
then use max(val, SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX) as your nr_pages.
