Some operators prefer IPv6 path selection to use a standard 5-tuple
hash rather than just an L3 hash with the flow the label. To that end
add support to IPv6 for multipath hash policy similar to bf4e0a3db97eb
("net: ipv4: add support for ECMP hash policy choice"). The default
is still L3 which covers source and destination addresses along with
flow label and IPv6 protocol.

Do you plan to add the nl NETCONF support for this new sysctl?

hmmm.... doesn't exist for the current IPv4 version, but in-kernel
drivers are notified. I wasn't planning on it, but it can be added.

Right for ipv4, it was on my todo list ;-)
