[PATCHv4 ipvs-next 3/3] netfilter: ipvs: Add configurations of Maglev hashing

[Inju Song <inju.song@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To build the maglev hashing scheduler, add some configuration
to Kconfig and Makefile.

 - The compile configurations of MH are added to the Kconfig.

 - The MH build rule is added to the Makefile.

+         The maglev consistent hashing scheduling algorithm provides the
+         Google's Maglev hashing algorithm as a IPVS scheduler. It assigns
+         network connections to the servers through looking up a statically
+         assigned special hash table called the lookup table. Maglev hashing
+         is to assign a preference list of all the lookup table positions
+         to each destination.
+
+         Through this operation, The maglev hashing gives an almost equal
+         share of the lookup table to each of the destinations and provides
+         minimal disruption by using the lookup table. When the set of
+         destinations changes, a connection will likely be sent to the same
+         destination as it was before.

+         The maglev hashing scheduler maps source IPs to destinations
+         stored in a hash table. This table is assigned by a preference
+         list of the positions to each destination until all slots in
+         the table are filled. The index determines the prime for size of
+         the table as 251, 509, 1021, 2039, 4093, 8191, 16381, 32749,
+         65521 or 131071. When using weights to allow destinations to
+         receive more connections, the table is assigned an amount
+         proportional to the weights specified. The table needs to be large
+         enough to effectively fit all the destinations multiplied by their
+         respective weights.
