ucount: use RCU for ucounts lookups

The ucounts element is looked up under ucounts_lock.  This can be
optimized by using RCU for a lockless lookup and return and element if the
reference can be obtained.

Replace hlist_head with hlist_nulls_head which is RCU compatible.  Let
find_ucounts() search for the required item within a RCU section and
return the item if a reference could be obtained.  This means
alloc_ucounts() will always return an element (unless the memory
allocation failed).  Let put_ucounts() RCU free the element if the
reference counter dropped to zero.
