From: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@xxxxxxxxx> commit fd30d1cdcc4ff405fc54765edf2e11b03f2ed4f3 upstream. We increase cache->nr_cached when we free into the cache but don't decrease when we take from it, so in some time we'll get an empty cache with cache->nr_cached larger than IO_ALLOC_CACHE_MAX, that fails io_alloc_cache_put() and effectively disables caching.
