rhashtable: Shrink to fit
This patch changes rhashtable_shrink to shrink to the smallest size possible rather than halving the table. This is needed because with multiple rehashing we will defer shrinking until all other rehashing is done, meaning that when we do shrink we may be able to shrink a lot.
