Can you gather some stats on how much memory rhashtable is actually
using? With that kernel you've probably got only one rhashtable user
which is netlink.

Bear in mind that this is a fairly low-memory machine (< 300M) so
it's not clear to me that this patch is the root cause of your OOM
problem.

Thanks,
