ipv6: fix useless rol32 call on hash
The rol32 call is currently rotating hash but the rol'd value is being discarded. I believe the current code is incorrect and hash should be assigned the rotated value returned from rol32. Thanks to David Lebrun for spotting this. Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
