I am sorry I haven't pointed this earlier (I was following only half
way) but this should really be memcg aware. You are checking only global
counters. I do not think it is an absolute must to provide per-memcg
data but you should at least check !is_memcg_oom(oc).

I would move the trylock up so that we do not get empty and confusing
Unreclaimable slab info: and add a note that we are not dumping anything
due to lock contention
pr_warn("excessive unreclaimable slab memory but cannot dump stats to give you more details\n");

Other than that this looks sensible to me.
