With the .dev_min_size field set to zero, it still causes OOM. Looking 
at the test output, it seems to use 256MB in this case:

It does not reach the tmpfs test, because btrfs is unhappy:

tst_test.c:922: TINFO: Formatting /dev/loop0 with btrfs opts='' extra opts=''
ERROR: '/dev/loop0' is too small to make a usable filesystem
ERROR: minimum size for each btrfs device is 47185920
tst_test.c:922: TBROK: mkfs.btrfs failed with exit code 1

With a size of 48MB, machine still crashes with OOM.

Here is what I get right after booting up, before starting ltp.sh tests. 
I've already disabled numerous services (nginx, redis, etc) to try and 
free up more memory.
