rhashtable: Add rht_ptr_rcu and improve rht_ptr This patch moves common code between rht_ptr and rht_ptr_exclusive into __rht_ptr. It also adds a new helper rht_ptr_rcu exclusively for the RCU case. This way rht_ptr becomes a lock-only construct so we can use the lighter rcu_dereference_protected primitive. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
