Eric Dumazet 0ed8ddf404 neigh: Protect neigh->ha[] with a seqlock ...

Add a seqlock in struct neighbour to protect neigh->ha[], and avoid
dirtying neighbour in stress situation (many different flows / dsts)

Dirtying takes place because of read_lock(&n->lock) and n->used writes.

Switching to a seqlock, and writing n->used only on jiffies changes
permits less dirtying.
