Subject: [v1 PATCH 0/6] rhashtable: Fix two bugs caused by multiple rehash
 preparation

Hi Dave:

While testing some new patches over the weekend I discovered a
couple of bugs in the series that had just been merged.  These
two patches fix them:

1) A use-after-free in the walker that can cause crashes when
walking during a rehash.

2) When a second rehash starts during a single rhashtable_remove
call the remove may fail when it shouldn't.

Cheers,
