Just upgraded from 4.6.5 to 4.7.2 for my btrfs backup server with 32GB

to the local btrfs. Cached mem tends to hang out around 26-30GB, but
with 4.7.2 the OOM is now going crazy and trying to kill whatever it
can including my ssh and rsync process. Anyone seen anything similar?
  That's probably OOM regression in 4.7. Could you please test this patch:
