[NET]: Fix hashing exploits in ipv4 routing, IP conntrack, and TCP synq.
Several hash table implementations in the networking were remotely exploitable. Remote attackers could launch attacks whereby, using carefully choosen forged source addresses, make every routing cache entry get hashed into the same hash chain. Netfilter's IP conntrack module and the TCP syn-queue implementation had identical vulnerabilities and have been fixed too. The choosen solution to the problem involved using Bob's Jenkins hash along with a randomly choosen input. For the ipv4 routing cache we take things one step further and periodically choose a new random secret. By default this happens every 10 minutes, but this is configurable by the user via sysctl knobs.
