This test fails routinely in our prod testing environment, and I can reproduce it locally as well. The test allocates dcache inside a cgroup, then drops the memory limit and checks that usage drops correspondingly. The reason it fails is because dentries are freed with an RCU delay - a debugging sleep shows that usage drops as expected shortly after. Insert a 1s sleep after dropping the limit. This should be good enough, assuming that machines running those tests are otherwise not very busy.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
