I'd like to let you know that I was getting OOM failure on s390 when booting
the kernel (linux-next20250109) with limited memory (mem=1G kernel parameter).
Problem took place in both zVM and LPAR environments. Bisecting also revealed
the commit e1d3422c95f0 ("rhashtable: Fix potential deadlock by moving
schedule_work outside lock").
Afterwards, I tried the fix from Herbert above and the error does not appear
any more. So it seems to resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Mikhail
