This is part of an effort to move from the vmwgfx_open_hash hashtable to linux/hashtable implementation. Refactor the ref_hash hashtable, used for fast lookup of reference objects associated with a ttm file. This also exposed a problem related to inconsistently using 32-bit and 64-bit keys with this hashtable. The hash function used changes depending on the size of the type, and results are not consistent across numbers, for example, hash_32(329) = 329, but hash_long(329) = 328. This would cause the lookup to fail for objects already in the hashtable, since keys of different sizes were being passed during adding and lookup. This was not an issue before because vmwgfx_open_hash always used hash_long. Fix this by always using 64-bit keys for this hashtable, which means that hash_long is always used.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
