Switch user_ns to use the new hashtable implementation. This reduces the amount of
generic unrelated code in user_ns.

Just looking at this ick.

- Your comparison function is broken.
- The naming is awkward.
    hash_get without a reference count being  incremented?
- The magic is deep.
   hash_get is named like a function but takes a piece of code to call
   like only a macro can.
- uid_hash_find always bumped the reference count
  but your uidhash_entry doesn't nor do all of the callers of
  uidhash_entry bump the reference count.

Nacked-by: "Eric W. Biederman" [off-list ref]

I don't have the time for a new improved better hash table that makes
the code buggier.
