I guess you do not have a stack trace(s) for that process? That would be
extremely helpful.

I am not sure what you mean by hard OOM because there is no global OOM
in that log:
$ grep "Kill process" kern7.log | sed 's@.*]\(.*Kill process\>\).*@\1@' | sort -u
Memory cgroup out of memory: Kill process
But you had a lot of memcg OOMs in that group (1304) during that time
(and even earlier):
$ grep "\<1304\>" kern7.log

The only thing that is clear from this is that there is always one
process killed and a new one is spawned and that leads to the same
out of memory situation. So this is precisely what Johannes already
described as a Hydra load.
There is a silence in the logs:
Sep 14 05:14:39 server01 kernel: [188940.869639] Killed process 8453 (apache2) total-vm:710732kB, anon-rss:245680kB, file-rss:4588kB

Myabe that is what you are referring to as a stuck situation. Is pid
8453 the task you have seen consuming the CPU? If yes, then we would
need a stack for that task to find out what is going on.
Other than that nothing really suspicious in the log AFAICS.
