Tejun Heo e47877c7aa rhashtable: Allow rhashtable to be used from irq-safe contexts ...

rhashtable currently only does bh-safe synchronization making it impossible
to use from irq-safe contexts. Switch it to use irq-safe synchronization to
remove the restriction.

v2: Update the lock functions to return the ulong flags value and unlock
    functions to take the value directly instead of passing around the
    pointer. Suggested by Linus.
