Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: rt_cache_flush() cleanup
Date: Fri, 07 Sep 2012 22:27:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1347049631.1234.35.camel@edumazet-glaptop> (raw)

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

We dont use jhash anymore since route cache removal,
so we can get rid of get_random_bytes() calls for rt_genid
changes.
