This patch addresses two issues:
a) Fix usage of u32 and __be32 that causes endianess warnings via sparse.
b) Ensure consistent hashing in a cluster that is composed of big and
little endian systems. Thus, we obtain the same hash mark in an
heterogeneous cluster.

The target allows you to create rules in the "raw" and "mangle" tables
which set the skbuff mark by means of hash calculation within a given
range. The nfmark can influence the routing method (see "Use netfilter
MARK value as routing key") and can also be used by other subsystems to
change their behaviour.
