It seems I can reproduce the issue on mmotm-0811, too.

try this.

Here, memory cgroup is mounted at /cgroups.
==
#!/bin/bash -x

while sleep 1; do
        date
        mkdir /cgroups/test
        echo 0 > /cgroups/test/tasks
        echo 300M > /cgroups/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
        cat /proc/self/cgroup
        dd if=/dev/zero of=./tmpfile bs=4096 count=100000
        echo 0 > /cgroups/tasks
        cat /proc/self/cgroup
        rmdir /cgroups/test
        rm ./tmpfile
done
