inetpeer: lower false sharing effect

Browse source 
Profiles show false sharing in addr_compare() because refcnt/dtime
changes dirty the first inet_peer cache line, where are lying the keys
used at lookup time. If many cpus are calling inet_getpeer() and
inet_putpeer(), or need frag ids, addr_compare() is in 2nd position in
"perf top".

Before patch, my udpflood bench (16 threads) on my 2x4x2 machine :

             5784.00  9.7% csum_partial_copy_generic [kernel]
             3356.00  5.6% addr_compare              [kernel]
             2638.00  4.4% fib_table_lookup          [kernel]
             2625.00  4.4% ip_fragment               [kernel]

After patch, no more addr_compare() in profiles :
