inetpeer: lower false sharing effect
Profiles show false sharing in addr_compare() because refcnt/dtime
changes dirty the first inet_peer cache line, where are lying the keys
used at lookup time. If many cpus are calling inet_getpeer() and
inet_putpeer(), or need frag ids, addr_compare() is in 2nd position in
"perf top".
Before patch, my udpflood bench (16 threads) on my 2x4x2 machine :
5784.00 9.7% csum_partial_copy_generic [kernel]
3356.00 5.6% addr_compare [kernel]
2638.00 4.4% fib_table_lookup [kernel]
2625.00 4.4% ip_fragment [kernel]
1934.00 3.2% neigh_lookup [kernel]
1617.00 2.7% udp_sendmsg [kernel]
1608.00 2.7% __ip_route_output_key [kernel]

1157.00 1.9% inet_getpeer [kernel]
1121.00 1.9% neigh_resolve_output [kernel]

After patch, no more addr_compare() in profiles :
