net: Add function to set the rxhash

The function skb_set_rxash was added for drivers to call to set
the rxhash in an skb. The type of hash is also specified as
a parameter (L2, L3, L4, or unknown type).

/*
* Packet hash types specify the type of hash in skb_set_hash.
*
* Hash types refer to the protocol layer addresses which are used to
* construct a packet's hash. The hashes are used to differentiate or identify
* flows of the protocol layer for the hash type. Hash types are either
* layer-2 (L2), layer-3 (L3), or layer-4 (L4).
*
* Properties of hashes:
*
* 1) Two packets in different flows have different hash values
* 2) Two packets in the same flow should have the same hash value
*
* A hash at a higher layer is considered to be more specific. A driver should
* set the most specific hash possible.
*
* A driver cannot indicate a more specific hash than the layer at which a hash
* was computed. For instance an L3 hash cannot be set as an L4 hash.
*
* A driver may indicate a hash level which is less specific than the
* actual layer the hash was computed on. For instance, a hash computed
* at L4 may be considered an L3 hash. This should only be done if the
* driver can't unambiguously determine that the HW computed the hash at
* the higher layer. Note that the "should" in the second property above
* permits this.
