Pavel Emelyanov 0b4419162a netns: introduce the net_hash_mix "salt" for hashes
There are many possible ways to add this "salt", thus I made this
patch to be the last in the series to change it if required.

Currently I propose to use the struct net pointer itself as this 
salt, but since this pointer is most often cache-line aligned, shift 
this right to eliminate the bits, that are most often zeroed.

After this, simply add this mix to prepared hashfn-s.

For CONFIG_NET_NS=n case this salt is 0 and no changes in hashfn
appear.
