Besides some legacy code, vmwgfx is the only user of DRM's hash- table implementation. Copy the code into the driver, so that the core code can be retired.

For the record - I have no clue what legacy code uses the DRM hash-table for.

No functional changes. However, the real solution for vmwgfx is to use Linux' generic hash-table functions.

Would it be possible to use the Linux hash-table now rather than this mid-step where a lot of code is added to wmgfx only to be removed later?

If we go for this way then a todo item to fix this in wmgfx so someone can fix this later would be nice.
