This patchset introduces a new bpf hash map which has timeout.

It's a bit too short a cover letter for a pretty major new type of
hash maps. Please expand on the problem it's trying to solve, how you
tested and benchmarked it, etc.

I prefer to put everything in each patch description, because `git log` is easy
to find it after merging. (I know we can retain this cover letter but
it is not directly
shown in `git log kernel/bpf/hashtab.c`)

Please reply to patch 3 if you think anything is missing in its description.

Thanks!
