Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/3] net: packet: add randomized fanout scheduler

We currently allow for different fanout scheduling policies in pf_packet
such as scheduling by skb's rxhash, round-robin, by cpu, and rollover.
Also allow for a random, equidistributed selection of the socket from the
fanout process group.
