Currently, all real users of rhashtable default their grow and shrink
decision functions to rht_grow_above_75() and rht_shrink_below_30(),
so that there's currently no need to have this explicitly selectable.
It can/should be generic and private inside rhashtable until a real
use case pops up. Since we can make this private, we'll save us this
additional indirection layer and can improve insertion/deletion time
as well.

While commit c0c09bfdc4 ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for
worker queue") rightfully moved part of the decision making of
whether we should expand or shrink from the expand/shrink functions
themselves into insert/delete functions in order to avoid unnecessary
worker wake-ups, it however introduced a regression by doing so.
Before that change, if no max_shift was specified (= 0) on rhashtable
initialization, rhashtable_expand() would just grow unconditionally
and lets the available memory be the limiting factor. After that
change, if no max_shift was specified, there would be _no_ expansion
step at all.
Given that netlink and tipc have a max_shift specified, it was not
visible there, but Josh Hunt reported that if nft that starts out
with a default element hint of 3 if not otherwise provided, would
slow i.e. inserts down trememdously as it cannot grow larger to
relax table occupancy.
Given that the test case verifies shrinks/expands manually, we also
must remove pointer to the helper functions to explicitly avoid
parallel resizing on insertions/deletions. test_bucket_stats() and
test_rht_lookup() could also be wrapped around rhashtable mutex to
explicitly synchronize a walk from resizing, but I think that defeats
the actual test case which intended to have explicit test steps,
i.e. 1) inserts, 2) expands, 3) shrinks, 4) deletions, with object
verification after each stage.

There's no good reason why to disallow unloading of the rhashtable
test case module.
Commit 9d6dbe1bba moved the code from a boot test into a stand-alone
module, but only converted the subsys_initcall() handler into a
module_init() function without a related exit handler, and thus
preventing the test module from unloading.

With object runtime debugging enabled, the rhashtable test suite
will rightfully throw a warning "ODEBUG: object is on stack, but
not annotated" from rhashtable_init().
This is because run_work is (correctly) being initialized via
INIT_WORK(), and not annotated by INIT_WORK_ONSTACK(). Meaning,
rhashtable_init() is okay as is, we just need to move ht e.g.,
into global scope.
It never triggered anything, since test_rhashtable is rather a
controlled environment and effectively runs to completion, so
that stack memory is not vanishing underneath us, we shouldn't
confuse any testers with it though.

Allow the selftest on the resizable hash table to be built modular, just
like all other tests that do not depend on DEBUG_KERNEL.
