rculfhash: remove helper scheme
There is a trade-off to consider here:
- The helper scheme would require the helpers to allocate the memory for
dummy nodes themself for correctness (the current implementation is
buggy because lookups consider an half-linked dummy node to be ready for
use), which does not work with a cache-efficient per-level array of
dummy nodes.
- We want cache-efficiency, so we want to keep the per-level array
allocation.
Therefore, letting insert/removal/lookups help expand is not the way to
go here. This patch removes the helping scheme.

Paul E. McKenney. Memory Ordering in Modern Microprocessors
www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/scalability/paper/ordering.2007.09.19a.pdf
x86 does not reorder loads vs loads, and stores vs stores when using
normal memory accesses, with the notable exceptions of Pentium Pro
(reorders reads) and WinChip (reorders writes). Therefore, it is safe
not to emit fence instructions for x86_64 cmm_smp_rmb()/cmm_smp_wmb(),
but we leave the memory fences in place for x86_32 for those two
special-cases.
Define cmm_smp_rmb and cmm_smp_wmb to be the "common" operations that
do not require fence instruction, while leaving cmm_rmb and cmm_wmb in
place for more sophisticated uses.

cmm: let per-arch files provide cmm_smp_* barriers
x86 instructions lfence and sfence are rarely needed, thus we want
the cmm_smp_rmb/cmm_smp_wmb macros to be simple compiler barriers.
So, let the per-arch files override the default definitions in
arch/generic.h.
