Finally found below patch [1] that fixed this issue.
With [1], I can see the speed of reset_controller operation[2] is obviously slow than before.

I retest this issue on 4.11.0, the OOM issue cannot be reproduced now on the same environment[1] with test script[2], not sure which patch fixed this issue?

And finally got reset_controller failed[3].

Sagi,
How do you see that release is slower than alloc? In this specific
test, all queues are empty and QP drains should finish immediately.

If we rely on the prints that Yi posted in the beginning of this thread,
the release function doesn't have enough priority for execution and
constantly delayed.

Maybe create separate workqueue and flush its only, instead of global
system queue.

It will stress the system a little bit less.
