Thanks David !

Here is a small patch to use one 64bit load/store on x86_64 instead of
two 32bit load/stores.

[PATCH net-next] flow_dissector: use a 64bit load/store

gcc compiler is smart enough to use a single load/store if we
memcpy(dptr, sptr, 8) on x86_64, regardless of
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE

In IP header, daddr immediately follows saddr, this wont change in the
future. We only need to make sure our flow_keys (src,dst) fields wont
break the rule.

0744dd00c1 net: introduce skb_flow_dissect()
We use at least two flow dissectors in network stack, with known
limitations and code duplication.

Introduce skb_flow_dissect() to factorize this, highly inspired from
existing dissector from __skb_get_rxhash()

Note : We extensively use skb_header_pointer(), this permits us to not
touch skb at all.
