If you know that $|f'(x)| le 1$, then you can quickly obtain the following estimate
using the mean value theorem.
$H(w)-H(w') = sum_i (f(x_i^T w)-f(x_i^Tw')) x_i x_i^T$, hence
$|H(w)-H(w')| le sum_i |x_i^T (w-w')| | x_i x_i^T| $, and
so $L=sum_i |x_i|^3$ is one estimate.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
The bound $|f'(x)< 1|$ is alright. However, the above estimate will result in M = O(n), which is not quite satisfactory. Is there any way to bound it in terms of the spectral radius of $sum_i x_i x_i^T$?

I see your point. I think it was my mistake. I will check how the bounds translate in my setting. To be really precise, I am interested in bounding M using the eigenvalues of the matrix $sum_i x_ix_i^T$ and maybe $max_i |x_i|$. Indeed, the eigenvalue can be large.
