Pablo Neira Ayuso ae82ddcf8e rhashtable: fix lockdep splat in rhashtable_destroy()
No need for rht_dereference() from rhashtable_destroy() since the
existing callers don't hold the mutex when invoking this function
from:

1) Netlink, this is called in case of memory allocation errors in the
   initialization path, no nl_sk_hash_lock is held.
2) Netfilter, this is called from the rcu callback, no nfnl_lock is
   held either.

I think it's reasonable to assume that the caller has to make sure
that no hash resizing may happen before releasing the bucket array.
Therefore, the caller should be responsible for releasing this in a
safe way, document this to make people aware of it.

This resolves a rcu lockdep splat in nft_hash:

===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
3.16.0+ #178 Not tainted
-------------------------------
lib/rhashtable.c:596 suspicious rcu_dereference_protected() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
