Actually, because a new condition was added before calling the function,
the whole thing could simply be changed to
#ifdef IP_SET_HASH_WITH_MULTI
if (h->bucketsize >= AHASH_MAX_TUNED)
goto set_full;
else if (h->bucketsize < multi)
h->bucketsize += AHASH_INIT_SIZE;
#endif
I'm going to submit a new patch.

Yes, correct.

No, because AHASH_MAX_TUNED is defined to be 64.

We are hashing elements into the same bucket and the original code
continued to resize the hash without a real limit (expect the memory). The
new condition checking the bucket size was critical here.

If 'multi' were used as the new size then bucketsize were shrinked. The
expected general use case is to build up sets containing attackers and the
peaks are common, therefore there's no point to shrink back. The maximal
number of elements is defined at set creation time and cannot be added
more.

That .h file is a template to generate the code for all of the individual
functions of the different hash types, therefore it contains lot of static
function definitions.
