Herbert Xu 408f13ef35 rhashtable: Still do rehash when we get EEXIST
As it stands if a shrink is delayed because of an outstanding
rehash, we will go into a rescheduling loop without ever doing
the rehash.

This patch fixes this by still carrying out the rehash and then
rescheduling so that we can shrink after the completion of the
rehash should it still be necessary.

The return value of EEXIST captures this case and other cases
(e.g., another thread expanded/rehashed the table at the same
time) where we should still proceed with the rehash.

Fixes: da20420f83 ("rhashtable: Add nested tables")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
