Some of the code paths calculating flow hash for IPv6 use flowlabel member
of struct flowi6 which, despite its name, encodes both flow label and
traffic class. If traffic class changes within a TCP connection (as e.g.
ssh does), ECMP route can switch between path. It's also incosistent with
other code paths where ip6_flowlabel() (returning only flow label) is used
to feed the key.

Use only flow label everywhere, including one place where hash key is set
using ip6_flowinfo().

Fixes: 51ebd3181572 ("ipv6: add support of equal cost multipath (ECMP)")
Fixes: f70ea018da06 ("net: Add functions to get skb->hash based on flow structures")

v2: introduce and use an inline helper as suggested by David Ahern

discussing the fix for net-next and making the label vs info consistent,
Michal notes a few places where this helper is needed as a __be32, so
the typecast should be outside of this helper.
