Just thinking out loud, perhaps one way would be to implement your own fanout
hashing via eBPF demuxer, f.e. in case CPU selection etc wouldn't work. Another
option could be to have a (2nd) customizable hash demux that would enforce to
always go through the flow-dissector and where you would have a socket option
to control keys for it, but I presume that seems rather less desirable.
