Herbert Xu ca26893f05 rhashtable: Add rhlist interface
The insecure_elasticity setting is an ugly wart brought out by
users who need to insert duplicate objects (that is, distinct
objects with identical keys) into the same table.

In fact, those users have a much bigger problem.  Once those
duplicate objects are inserted, they don't have an interface to
find them (unless you count the walker interface which walks
over the entire table).

Some users have resorted to doing a manual walk over the hash
table which is of course broken because they don't handle the
potential existence of multiple hash tables.  The result is that
they will break sporadically when they encounter a hash table
resize/rehash.

This patch provides a way out for those users, at the expense
of an extra pointer per object.  Essentially each object is now
a list of objects carrying the same key.  The hash table will
only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is
concerned.

To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head
into your objects instead of struct rhash_head.  While the hash
table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct
rhltable instead of struct rhashtable.  All the existing interfaces
have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker.

One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential
user of it does not need duplicate objects.  Should anyone need
this it shouldn't be too hard to add.
