The input_dst_cache allows fast lookup of frequently encountered dsts.

In order to provide stable results, I implemented a simple linear
hashtable with each bucket containing a constant amount of
entries (DST_CACHE_INPUT_BUCKET_SIZE).

Similarly to how the route hint is used, I defined the hashtable key to
contain the daddr and the tos of the IP header.

Lookup is performed in a straightforward manner: start at the bucket head
corresponding the hashed key and search the following
DST_CACHE_INPUT_BUCKET_SIZE entries of the array for a matching key.

When inserting a new dst to the cache, if all the bucket entries are
full, the oldest one is deleted to make room for the new dst.

Hmm...

This patch adds 10MB of memory per netns on host with 512 cpus,
and adds netns creation and dismantle costs (45% on a host with 256 cpus)

It targets IPv4 only, which some of us no longer use.

Also, what is the behavior (loss of performance) of this cache under
flood, when 16 slots need to be looked up for each packet ?
