You are right that this hardcoded limit introduced in the previous
patch was useless. So I have removed that, and applied the result.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Regarding removing the next power functions in dynahash.c, I am not

all the code duplication that was in the backend, without the
hardcoded thresholds, is removed.
