Merged into selinux/next, thanks Christian.  This macro definition
predates the move to git so there is no quick answer to "why is this
here?", but my best guess is that it is an artifact of a developer
"disabling" the DEBUG_HASHES macro by adding an underscore to the
front.  Regardless of the reason behind it, I agree it should be
removed.
