xfrm: policy: store inexact policies in an rhashtable
Switch packet-path lookups for inexact policies to rhashtable. In this initial version, we now no longer need to search policies with non-matching address family and type. Next patch will add the if_id as well so lookups from the xfrm interface driver only need to search inexact policies for that device. Future patches will augment the hlist in each rhash bucket with a tree and pre-sort policies according to daddr/prefix. A single rhashtable is used. In order to avoid a full rhashtable walk on netns exit, the bins get placed on a pernet list, i.e. we add almost no cost for network namespaces that had no xfrm policies. The inexact lists are kept in place, and policies are added to both the per-rhash-inexact list and a pernet one. The latter is needed for the control plane to handle migrate -- these requests do not consider the if_id, so if we'd remove the inexact_list now we would have to search all hash buckets and then figure out which matching policy candidate is the most recent one -- this appears a bit harder than just keeping the 'old' inexact list for this purpose.
