[hardy CVE 1/1] ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictable

[ Backport of upstream commit 87c48fa3b4630905f98268dde838ee43626a060c ]

Fernando Gont reported current IPv6 fragment identification generation
was not secure, because using a very predictable system-wide generator,
allowing various attacks.

IPv4 uses inetpeer cache to address this problem and to get good
performance. We'll use this mechanism when IPv6 inetpeer is stable
enough in linux-3.1

For the time being, we use jhash on destination address to provide less
predictable identifications. Also remove a spinlock and use cmpxchg() to
get better SMP performance.
