I pushed this little nugget to one affected machine via KLP:

diff --git a/mm/memcontrol.c b/mm/memcontrol.c

+       if (gfp_mask == GFP_NOWAIT) {
+               try_charge(memcg, gfp_mask|__GFP_NOFAIL, nr_pages);

        return false;
 }

The problem normally reproes reliably within 10min -- 30min and counting
and the application-level latency has not spiked.
