Reviewing commit a9d8f9110d7e953c2f2b521087a4179677843c2a
I see use of a hashinfo->bsockets field that :
- lacks proper lock/synchronization
It should contain rough number of sockets, there is no need to be very
precise because of this hueristic.
- suffers from cache line ping pongs on SMP
I used free alignment slot so that socket structure would not be
icreased.

Also there might be a problem at line 175

goto again;
If we entered inet_csk_get_port() with a non null snum, we can "goto again"
while it was not expected.

I think it should be smallest_size != -1, since we really want to goto
to the again label when hueristic is used, which in turn changes
smallest_size.
