This patch reintroduces immediate rehash during insertion. If
we find during insertion that the table is full or the chain
length exceeds a set limit (currently 16 but may be disabled
with insecure_elasticity) then we will force an immediate rehash.
The rehash will contain an expansion if the table utilisation
exceeds 75%.
If this rehash fails then the insertion will fail. Otherwise the
insertion will be reattempted in the new hash table.

This patch adds the missing bits to allow multiple rehashes. The
read-side as well as remove already handle this correctly. So it's
only the rehasher and insertion that need modification to handle
this.
Note that this patch doesn't actually enable it so for now rehashing
is still only performed by the worker thread.
This patch also disables the explicit expand/shrink interface because
the table is meant to expand and shrink automatically, and continuing
to export these interfaces unnecessarily complicates the life of the
rehasher since the rehash process is now composed of two parts.

This patch changes rhashtable_shrink to shrink to the smallest
size possible rather than halving the table. This is needed
because with multiple rehashing we will defer shrinking until
all other rehashing is done, meaning that when we do shrink
we may be able to shrink a lot.

Since every current rhashtable user uses jhash as their hash
function, the fact that jhash is an inline function causes each
user to generate a copy of its code.
This function provides a solution to this problem by allowing
hashfn to be unset. In which case rhashtable will automatically
set it to jhash. Furthermore, if the key length is a multiple
of 4, we will switch over to jhash2.

This patch deals with the complaint that we make indirect function
calls on the fast paths unnecessarily in rhashtable. We resolve
it by moving the fast paths into inline functions that take struct
rhashtable_param (which obviously must be the same set of parameters
supplied to rhashtable_init) as an argument.
The only remaining indirect call is to obj_hashfn (or key_hashfn it
obj_hashfn is unset) on the rehash as well as the insert-during-
rehash slow path.
This patch also extends the support of vairable-length keys to
include those where the key is fixed but scattered in the object.
For example, in netlink we want to key off the namespace and the
portid but they're not next to each other.
This patch does this by directly using the object hash function
as the indicator of whether the key is accessible or not. It
also adds a new function obj_cmpfn to compare a key against an
object. This means that the caller no longer needs to supply
explicit compare functions.
All this is done in a backwards compatible manner so no existing
users are affected until they convert to the new interface.

Round up min_size respectively round down max_size to the next power
of two to make sure we always respect the limit specified by the
user. This is required because we compare the table size against the
limit before we expand or shrink.
Also fixes a minor bug where we modified min_size in the params
provided instead of the copy stored in struct rhashtable.

The commit 9d901bc051 ("rhashtable:
Free bucket tables asynchronously after rehash") causes gratuitous
failures in rhashtable_remove.
The reason is that it inadvertently introduced multiple rehashing
from the perspective of readers. IOW it is now possible to see
more than two tables during a single RCU critical section.
Fortunately the other reader rhashtable_lookup already deals with
this correctly thanks to c4db8848af
("rhashtable: rhashtable: Move future_tbl into struct bucket_table")
so only rhashtable_remove is broken by this change.
This patch fixes this by looping over every table from the first
one to the last or until we find the element that we were trying
to delete.
Incidentally the simple test for detecting rehashing to prevent
starting another shrinking no longer works. Since it isn't needed
anyway (the work queue and the mutex serves as a natural barrier
to unnecessary rehashes) I've simply killed the test.

The commit c4db8848af ("rhashtable:
Move future_tbl into struct bucket_table") introduced a use-after-
free bug in rhashtable_walk_stop because it dereferences tbl after
droping the RCU read lock.
This patch fixes it by moving the RCU read unlock down to the bottom
of rhashtable_walk_stop. In fact this was how I had it originally
but it got dropped while rearranging patches because this one
depended on the async freeing of bucket_table.

This patch adds a rehash counter to bucket_table to indicate
the last bucket that has been rehashed. This serves two purposes:
1. Any bucket that has been rehashed can never gain a new object.
2. If the rehash counter reaches the size of the table, the table
will forever remain empty.
This patch also downsizes bucket_table->size to an unsigned int
since we do not support sizes greater than 32 bits yet.

Previously whenever the walker encountered a resize it simply
snaps back to the beginning and starts again. However, this only
works if the rehash started and completed while the walker was
idle.
If the walker attempts to restart while the rehash is still ongoing,
we may miss objects that we shouldn't have.
This patch fixes this by making the walker walk the old table
followed by the new table just like all other readers. If a
rehash is detected we will still signal our caller of the fact
so they can prepare for duplicates but we will simply continue
the walk onto the new table after the old one is finished either
by us or by the rehasher.

Commit c0c09bfdc4 ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for worker
queue") changed ht->shift to be atomic, which is actually unnecessary.
Instead of leaving the current shift in the core rhashtable structure,
it can be cached inside the individual bucket tables.
There, it will only be initialized once during a new table allocation
in the shrink/expansion slow path, and from then onward it stays immutable
for the rest of the bucket table liftime.
That allows shift to be non-atomic. The patch also moves hash_rnd
management into the table setup. The rhashtable structure now consumes
3 instead of 4 cachelines.
