It's a terrible abstraction and very inefficient. Iteration uses function calls, as does removal. Key comparisons use callbacks, via indirection function pointers, also very inefficient. Just use the "struct hlist_head" and "struct hlist_node" objects we have generically already. Inline the list iteration, as well as the key comparisons and the node linking/unlinking. Otherwise if you think your hash helpers are so incredibly useful, propose for their inclusion under lib/ on linux-kernel But frankly, I wish you a lot of luck with that. :-)
