Subject: [PATCH 03/18] rhashtable: remove nulls_base and related code.
This "feature" is unused, undocumented, and untested and so
doesn't really belong. Next patch will introduce support
to detect when a search gets diverted down a different chain,
which the common purpose of nulls markers.
This patch actually fixes a bug too. The table resizing allows a
table to grow to 2^31 buckets, but the hash is truncated to 27 bits -
any growth beyond 2^27 is wasteful an ineffective.
This patch results in NULLS_MARKER(0) being used for all chains,
and leaves the use of rht_is_a_null() to test for it.
