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.

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.

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.

It can/should be generic and private inside rhashtable until a real

additional indirection layer and can improve insertion/deletion time

When we put our declared work task in the global workqueue with
schedule_delayed_work(), its delay parameter is always zero.
Therefore, we should define a regular work in rhashtable structure
instead of a delayed work.
By the way, we add a condition to check whether resizing functions
are NULL before cancelling the work, avoiding to cancel an
uninitialized work.
Lastly, while we wait for all work items we submitted before to run
to completion with cancel_delayed_work(), ht->mutex has been taken in
rhashtable_destroy(). Moreover, cancel_delayed_work() doesn't return
until all work items are accomplished, and when work items are
scheduled, the work's function - rht_deferred_worker() will be called.
However, as rht_deferred_worker() also needs to acquire the lock,
deadlock might happen at the moment as the lock is already held before.
So if the cancel work function is moved out of the lock covered scope,
this will avoid the deadlock.

In order to allow for wider usage of rhashtable, use a special nulls
marker to terminate each chain. The reason for not using the existing
nulls_list is that the prev pointer usage would not be valid as entries
can be linked in two different buckets at the same time.
The 4 nulls base bits can be set through the rhashtable_params structure
like this:
struct rhashtable_params params = {
[...]
.nulls_base = (1U << RHT_BASE_SHIFT),
};
This reduces the hash length from 32 bits to 27 bits.

Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number
of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of
the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries
which do not share a lock.
The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which
allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and
deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly
while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped.
Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read
access is RCU protected.
In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated
is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process
starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables.
The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and
initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization
of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the
new table is in use.
The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket
traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see
any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that
point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches
both tables if needed.
Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems
to become an atomic counter.

The removal function of nft_hash currently stores a reference to the
previous element during lookup which is used to optimize removal later
on. This was possible because a lock is held throughout calling
rhashtable_lookup() and rhashtable_remove().
With the introdution of deferred table resizing in parallel to lookups
and insertions, the nftables lock will no longer synchronize all
table mutations and the stored pprev may become invalid.
Removing this optimization makes removal slightly more expensive on
average but allows taking the resize cost out of the insert and
remove path.

Although rhashtable library allows user to specify a quiet big size
for user's created hash table, the table may be shrunk to a
very small size - HASH_MIN_SIZE(4) after object is removed from
the table at the first time. Subsequently, even if the total amount
of objects saved in the table is quite lower than user's initial
setting in a long time, the hash table size is still dynamically
adjusted by rhashtable_shrink() or rhashtable_expand() each time
object is inserted or removed from the table. However, as
synchronize_rcu() has to be called when table is shrunk or
expanded by the two functions, we should permit user to set the
minimum table size through configuring the minimum number of shifts
according to user specific requirement, avoiding these expensive
actions of shrinking or expanding because of calling synchronize_rcu().

Generic implementation of a resizable, scalable, concurrent hash table
based on [0]. The implementation supports both, fixed size keys specified
via an offset and length, or arbitrary keys via own hash and compare
functions.
Lookups are lockless and protected as RCU read side critical sections.
Automatic growing/shrinking based on user configurable watermarks is
available while allowing concurrent lookups to take place.
Objects to be hashed must include a struct rhash_head. The reason for not
using the existing struct hlist_head is that the expansion and shrinking
will have two buckets point to a single entry which would lead in obscure
reverse chaining behaviour.
Code includes a boot selftest if CONFIG_TEST_RHASHTABLE is defined.
