ipv6: switch inet6_addr_hash() to less predictable hash
In commit 3f27fb23219e ("ipv6: addrconf: add per netns perturbation in inet6_addr_hash()"), I added net_hash_mix() in inet6_addr_hash() to get better hash dispersion, at a time all netns were sharing the hash table. Since then, commit 21a216a8fc63 ("ipv6/addrconf: allocate a per netns hash table") made the hash table per netns. We could remove the net_hash_mix() from inet6_addr_hash(), but there is still an issue with ipv6_addr_hash(). It is highly predictable and a malicious user can easily create thousands of IPv6 addresses all stored in the same hash bucket. Switch to __ipv6_addr_jhash(). We could use a dedicated secret, or reuse net_hash_mix() as I did in this patch.
