This allows for parallel table mutations in different hash buckets from atomic context. The resizing occurs in the background in a separate worker thread while lookups, inserts, and removals can continue. Also modified the chain linked list to be terminated with a special nulls marker to allow entries to move between multiple lists. Last but not least, reintroduces lockless netlink_lookup() with deferred Netlink socket destruction to avoid the side effect of increased netlink_release() runtime. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
