Subject: [PATCH net-next] xfrm: remove useless hash_resize_mutex locks
In xfrm_policy.c, hash_resize_mutex is defined as a local variable
and only used in xfrm_hash_resize() which is declared as a work
handler of xfrm.policy_hash_work. But when the xfrm.policy_hash_work
work is put in the global workqueue(system_wq) with schedule_work(),
the work will be really inserted in the global workqueue if it was
not already queued, otherwise, it is still left in the same position
on the the global workqueue. This means the xfrm_hash_resize() work
handler is only executed once at any time no matter how many times
its work is scheduled, that is, xfrm_hash_resize() is not called
concurrently at all, so hash_resize_mutex is redundant for us.
Additionally hash_resize_mutex defined in xfrm_state.c can be removed
as the same reason.
