[PATCH net-next 1/4] net: rps: change skb_flow_limit() hash function

[Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>]

As explained in commit f3483c8e1da6 ("net: rfs: hash function change"),
masking low order bits of skb_get_hash(skb) has low entropy.

A NIC with 32 RX queues uses the 5 low order bits of rss key
to select a queue. This means all packets landing to a given
queue share the same 5 low order bits.

Switch to hash_32() to reduce hash collisions.
