That's fine and thanks for guiding till now.

But, Please look at this case once:
Now each of ports are attached to there own bridge instead of one, and
when I route traffic from one host to other, We will never face this
problem.

root@none:/$ brctl addbr br-lan1
root@none:/$ brctl addif br-lan1 eth0.0
root@none:/$ brctl stp br-lan1 on

root@none:/$ brctl addbr br-lan2
root@none:/$ brctl addif br-lan2 eth0.1
root@none:/$ brctl stp br-lan2 on

root@none:/$ brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
br-lan1         8000.001570d8d8fd       yes             eth0.0
br-lan2         8000.001570d8d8fd       yes             eth0.1

In this case, even if I send huge traffic the throughput is decreased
but device is not going out of memory.

Hence I feel there is some leak in bridge instead of driver

root@OpenWrt:/$ brctl --version
bridge-utils, 1.0.6.

If possible, please check this.

Thanks,
Sharad.

If the driver was open source and in one of the standard distributions,
it could be reviewed. But since you are on an older kernel with a
non-standard driver there really isn't a lot of interest on my part to
help. Sorry.
