Anything received after that time might be too late.

As far as I can see this missing an rather important mm fix from Michal Hocko.

    mm, oom: prevent premature OOM killer invocation for high order request
    
    There have been several reports about pre-mature OOM killer invocation
    in 4.7 kernel when order-2 allocation request (for the kernel stack)
    invoked OOM killer even during basic workloads (light IO or even kernel
    compile on some filesystems).  In all reported cases the memory is
    fragmented and there are no order-2+ pages available.  There is usually
    a large amount of slab memory (usually dentries/inodes) and further
    debugging has shown that there are way too many unmovable blocks which
    are skipped during the compaction.  Multiple reporters have confirmed
    that the current linux-next which includes [1] and [2] helped and OOMs
    are not reproducible anymore.
    
    A simpler fix for the late rc and stable is to simply ignore the
    compaction feedback and retry as long as there is a reclaim progress and
    we are not getting OOM for order-0 pages.  We already do that for
    CONFING_COMPACTION=n so let's reuse the same code when compaction is
    enabled as well.
