mm: adaptive hash table scaling

Allow hash tables to scale with memory but at slower pace, when
HASH_ADAPT is provided every time memory quadruples the sizes of hash
tables will only double instead of quadrupling as well.  This algorithm
starts working only when memory size reaches a certain point, currently
set to 64G.

This is example of dentry hash table size, before and after four various
memory configurations:

MEMORY	   SCALE	 HASH_SIZE
	old	new	old	new
    8G	 13	 13      8M      8M
   16G	 13	 13     16M     16M
   32G	 13	 13     32M     32M
   64G	 13	 13     64M     64M
  128G	 13	 14    128M     64M
  256G	 13	 14    256M    128M
  512G	 13	 15    512M    128M
 1024G	 13	 15   1024M    256M
 2048G	 13	 16   2048M    256M
 4096G	 13	 16   4096M    512M
 8192G	 13	 17   8192M    512M
16384G	 13	 17  16384M   1024M
32768G	 13	 18  32768M   1024M
65536G	 13	 18  65536M   2048M

The effect of this change on runtime is undetectable as filesystem
growth is not proportional to machine memory size as is currently
assumed.  The change effects only large memory machine.  Additional
tuning might be needed, but that can be done by the clients of the
kmem_cache_create interface, not the generic cache allocator itself.

The adaptive hashing is disabled on 32 bit systems to avoid confusion of
whether base should be different for smaller systems, and to avoid
overflows.
