bonding: Add new layer2+3 hash for xor/802.3ad modes 

Add new hash for balance-xor and 802.3ad modes.  Originally
 submitted by "Glenn Griffin" <ggriffin.kernel@gmail.com>; modified by
 Jay Vosburgh to move setting of hash policy out of line, tweak the
 documentation update and add version update to 3.2.2.

	Glenn's original comment follows:

Included is a patch for a new xmit_hash_policy for the bonding driver
that selects slaves based on MAC and IP information.  This is a middle
ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the
layer3+4 policy.  This policy strives to be fully 802.3ad compliant by
transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link.
As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme
cases such as ip fragmentation, so this policy is a nice compromise
for environments that require full compliance but desire more than the
layer2 only policy.

layer2+3
This policy uses a combination of layer2 and layer3
protocol information to generate the hash.
Uses XOR of hardware MAC addresses and IP addresses to
generate the hash. The formula is
(((source IP XOR dest IP) AND 0xffff) XOR
( source MAC XOR destination MAC ))
modulo slave count
This algorithm will place all traffic to a particular
network peer on the same slave. For non-IP traffic,
the formula is the same as for the layer2 transmit
hash policy.
This policy is intended to provide a more balanced
distribution of traffic than layer2 alone, especially
in environments where a layer3 gateway device is
required to reach most destinations.
This algorithm is 802.3ad complient.

This policy uses upper layer protocol information,
