Why not just move skb_get_hash_flowi6() to its caller?
This check is not necessary. If you don't want to touch
existing callers, you can just introduce a wrapper:


static inline __be32 ip6_make_flowlabel(struct net *net, struct sk_buff *skb,
                                        __be32 flowlabel, bool autolabel,
                                        struct flowi6 *fl6)
{
  u32 hash = skb_get_hash_flowi6(skb, fl6);
  return __ip6_make_flowlabel(net, flowlabel, autolabel, hash);
}
this will always call skb_get_hash_flowi6 for the fast path even auto flowlabel
is disabled. I thought we should avoid this.
Yeah, but you can move the check out too,
something like:
Is this really better? I don't see any point. I'd use my original patch other
than this one. that said, there are just several lines of code, brutally
'abstract' them into a function doesn't make the code better.
