Subject: [PATCH] futex: Unbreak futex hashing
Git-commit: 8d67743653dce5a0e7aa500fcccb237cde7ad88e
Patch-mainline: v5.6-rc6
References: bsc#1149032

The recent futex inode life time fix changed the ordering of the futex key
union struct members, but forgot to adjust the hash function accordingly,

As a result the hashing omits the leading 64bit and even hashes beyond the
futex key causing a bad hash distribution which led to a ~100% performance
regression.

Hand in the futex key pointer instead of a random struct member and make
the size calculation based of the struct offset.
