[PATCH] Make simple TX hash little endian safe.

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

From: Andi Kleen <andi@basil.nowhere.org>

Currently it will not use the lower
bits at all on big endian system, mapping e.g. all connections to a single
queue on a local network which only differs in the low bits.

Also fold the upper 16 bits always in the lower 16bits.
