lib/rhashtable: fix race between rhashtable_lookup_compare and hashtable resize
Hash value passed as argument into rhashtable_lookup_compare could be computed using different hash table than rhashtable_lookup_compare sees. This patch passes key into rhashtable_lookup_compare() instead of hash and compures hash value right in place using the same table as for lookup. Also it adds comment for rhashtable_hashfn and rhashtable_obj_hashfn: user must prevent concurrent insert/remove otherwise returned hash value could be invalid.
