Eric Dumazet 2c1409a0a2 inetpeer: Optimize inet_getid()
While investigating for network latencies, I found inet_getid() was a
contention point for some workloads, as inet_peer_idlock is shared
by all inet_getid() users regardless of peers.

One way to fix this is to make ip_id_count an atomic_t instead
of __u16, and use atomic_add_return().

In order to keep sizeof(struct inet_peer) = 64 on 64bit arches
tcp_ts_stamp is also converted to __u32 instead of "unsigned long".
