[PATCH] inet_peer: Optimize inet_getid()

[Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>]

While investigating for network latencies, I found inet_getid() was a contention point
for some workloads.

Fix is straightforward, using cmpxchg() instead of
a spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() pair on a central lock.

Another possibility was to use an atomic_t and atomic_add_return() but
the size of struct inet_peer object would had doubled on x86_64 because of
SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN constraint.
