[PATCH net-next] ipv6 Use get_hash_from_flowi6 for rt6 hash

In rt6_info_hash_nhsfn replace the custom hashing over flowi6 that is
using xor with a call to common function get_hash_from_flowi6.

Tom, I just so happened to look over the call paths that lead to this
function and the flowi6 ports aren't filled in much of the time.

I know your patch doesn't change things one way or the other in this
area, but I thought I'd bring it up nonetheless.

Yeah, I noticed  there's still a little work to do here. On input put
we should be passing in skb to use skb->hash instead of calculating
it. On ouput we should be getting hash from sk->txhash for connected
sockets.
