Using rht_dereference_bucket() to dereference ->future_tbl looks like a type error, and could be confusing. Using rht_dereference_rcu() to test a pointer for NULL adds an unnecessary barrier - rcu_access_pointer() is preferred for NULL tests when no lock is held. This uses 3 different ways to access ->future_tbl. - if we know the mutex is held, use rht_dereference() - if we don't hold the mutex, and are only testing for NULL, use rcu_access_pointer() - otherwise (using RCU protection for true dereference), use rht_dereference_rcu(). Note that this includes a simplification of the call to rhashtable_last_table() - we don't do an extra dereference before the call any more.
