+Subject: [PATCH] Prevent premature hsplit() calls, and only trigger REHASH
+ after hsplit()
+
+Triggering a hsplit due to long chain length allows an attacker
+to create a carefully chosen set of keys which can cause the hash
+to use 2 * (2**32) * sizeof(void *) bytes ram. AKA a DOS via memory
+exhaustion. Doing so also takes non trivial time.
+
+Eliminating this check, and only inspecting chain length after a
+normal hsplit() (triggered when keys>buckets) prevents the attack
+entirely, and makes such attacks relatively benign.
+
+(cherry picked from commit f1220d61455253b170e81427c9d0357831ca0fac)
