    inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation
    
    [ Upstream commit aa6dd211e4b1dde9d5dc25d699d35f789ae7eeba ]
    
    In commit 73f156a6e8c1 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count")
    I used a very small hash table that could be abused
    by patient attackers to reveal sensitive information.
    
    Switch to a dynamic sizing, depending on RAM size.
    
    Typical big hosts will now use 128x more storage (2 MB)
    to get a similar increase in security and reduction
    of hash collisions.
    
    As a bonus, use of alloc_large_system_hash() spreads
    allocated memory among all NUMA nodes.
