Did you get this log while applications are running and LRU are changing ?
See N1, 72505 != 60804 + 7733. big error.

Could you clarify why total != file + anon ? 
Does the number seems consistent when the system is calm ?

BTW, I wonder why unevictable is not shown...
mem_cgroup_node_nr_lru_pages() counts unevictable into it because of for_each_lru().

There are 2 ways.
 1. show unevictable
 2. use for_each_evictable_lru().

I vote for 1.
