I have some concern about exporting this; unlike the other data
structures like lists and hmaps which provide no locking semantics and
it's up to the user to provide guarantees about read/write
consistency, cmap builds in a bunch of requirements around RCU
quiescing and such. Mechanically this patch is simple but the
implications of exporting this in libopenvswitch are quite wide and it
needs thinking through.
