That looks like it would be equivalent, and would nicely isolate those
calls in hash specific code. So yeah I think that's worth sending as a
proper patch, even better if you can test it.

I think the HPT resizing was developed before or concurrently with the
radix support, so I would guess it was just not something we thought
about at the time.
