Well, I don't really _want_ them; nor does the ipc code which already

It has nothing to do with the error return path. Assuming you
remove the allocation failure path, then this error path can never
trigger for *your* use-case.
Why would this be triggered by any use case if the developer setup the
params correctly...? I don't see the point of not getting rid of the
EINVAL or wrapping around warning around it. Ultimately it would be
good to just have rhashtable_init() return void.
