When max_size is not set or if it set to a sufficiently large value, the nelems counter can overflow. This would cause havoc with the automatic shrinking as it would then attempt to fit a huge number of entries into a tiny hash table. This patch fixes this by adding max_elems to struct rhashtable to cap the number of elements. This is set to 2^31 as nelems is not a precise count. This is sufficiently smaller than UINT_MAX that it should be safe. When max_size is set max_elems will be lowered to at most twice max_size as is the status quo.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
