rhashtable: Add bucket_table_free_atomic() helper
rhashtable_insert_rehash() allocates a new bucket table
with GFP_ATOMIC, as it is called from an RCU read-side
critical section.
If rhashtable_rehash_attach() then fails, the new table
is freed via kvfree(). This is unsafe, since kvfree() may
fall back to vfree() for vmalloc-backed allocations, which
can sleep and trigger:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context
Add bucket_table_free_atomic(), which uses kvfree_atomic()
so the table can be freed safely from non-sleeping context.
