rhashtable: Use __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC for table allocation
When an rhashtable user pounds rhashtable hard with back-to-back
insertions we may end up growing the table in GFP_ATOMIC context.
Unfortunately when the table reaches a certain size this often
fails because we don't have enough physically contiguous pages
to hold the new table.
Eric Dumazet suggested (and in fact wrote this patch) using
__vmalloc instead which can be used in GFP_ATOMIC context.
