The exact function that fails is: 
include/linux/rhashtable.h
static inline void *__rhashtable_insert_fast(
        struct rhashtable *ht, const void *key, struct rhash_head *obj,
        const struct rhashtable_params params, bool rhlist)
{
        ...

        data = ERR_PTR(-E2BIG);
        if (unlikely(rht_grow_above_max(ht, tbl)))
               goto out;
        ...

out:
        spin_unlock_bh(lock);
        rcu_read_unlock();

        return data;
}

And the backtrace:
