Even with per bucket locking scheme, in a massive parallel
system with active rds sockets which could be in excess of multiple
of 10K, rds_bin_lookup() workload is siginificant because of smaller
hashtable size.

With some tests, it was found that we get modest but still nice
reduction in rds_bind_lookup with bigger bucket.

        Hashtable       Baseline(1k)    Delta
        2048:           8.28%           -2.45%
        4096:           8.28%           -4.60%
        8192:           8.28%           -6.46%
        16384:          8.28%           -6.75%

Based on the data, we set 8K as the bind hash-table size.

Like others I would strongly prefer that you use a dynamically sized
hash table.

Eating 8k just because a module just happened to get loaded is really
not appropriate.

And there are many other places that use such a scheme, one example is
the AF_NETLINK socket hash table.

OK. Thanks for AF_NETLINK pointer. I will look it up.
