Indeed, and if this happened this would be a bug in the caller, not the ratelimiter itself, kind of like lock imbalances; however it's easy to mitigate this by just replacing that atomic64_dec_return with atomic64_dec_if_positive, so I'll do that.

Interesting, it crashes on the second run of it, when executing `KMEM_CACHE(ratelimiter_entry, 0)`. (OOPS is below.) > As Dmitry already asked, are you using SLAB or SLUB? SLUB. > Sorry, I can not really give a definitive answer. Alright, we'll poke it from both ends, then.
