ipv6: switch inet6_acaddr_hash() to less predictable hash
commit 2384d02520ff ("net/ipv6: Add anycast addresses to a global hashtable") added inet6_acaddr_hash(), using ipv6_addr_hash() and net_hash_mix() to get hash spreading for typical users. However ipv6_addr_hash() is highly predictable and a malicious user could abuse a specific hash bucket. Switch to __ipv6_addr_jhash(). We could use a dedicated secret, or reuse net_hash_mix() as I did in this patch.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
