Implementation of function rhashtable_insert_fast() check if its internal
helper function __rhashtable_insert_fast() returns non-NULL pointer and
seemingly return -EEXIST in such case. However, since
__rhashtable_insert_fast() is called with NULL key pointer, it never
actually checks for duplicates, which means that -EEXIST is never returned
to the user. Use rhashtable_lookup_insert_fast() hash table API instead. In
order to verify that it works as expected and prevent the problem from
happening in future, extend tc-tests with new test that verifies that no
new filters with existing key can be inserted to flower classifier.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
