Are you by chance using the Nvidia binary blob video driver?  It might
cause this issue, and there is a workaround:
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/173.14.31/README/chapter-09.html#kva_exhaustion

If you aren't, the suggestion there might still help, but you should
also file a bug against the kernel [1].  (Don't bother doing so if you
are using the nvidia driver, the kernel team really can't do anything
about it when that's in the mix.)

This indicates that systemd is attempting to start your swap device,
so the error you get when running `swapon` is the issue, not fstab or
anything.
