[PATCH 1/4] lib/librte_table: Fix empty bucket removal during entry deletion in rte_table_hash_ext

From: Balazs Nemeth <hidden>
Date: 2014-09-11 17:47:18
Subsystem: library code, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

When an entry is deleted from an extensible rte_table_hash, the bucket
that stored the entry can become empty. If this is the case, the
bucket needs to be removed from the chain of buckets.

During removal of the bucket, the chain should be updated first. If
the bucket that will be removed is cleared first, the chain is broken
and the information to update the chain is lost.
