ipv6: omit traffic class when calculating flow hash
[ Upstream commit fa1be7e0 ] Some of the code paths calculating flow hash for IPv6 use flowlabel member of struct flowi6 which, despite its name, encodes both flow label and traffic class. If traffic class changes within a TCP connection (as e.g. ssh does), ECMP route can switch between path. It's also inconsistent with other code paths where ip6_flowlabel() (returning only flow label) is used to feed the key. Use only flow label everywhere, including one place where hash key is set using ip6_flowinfo().
