From: Timofey Titovets <nefelim...@gmail.com> Replace jhash2 with xxhash.
Perf numbers: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2420 v2 @ 2.20GHz ksm: crc32c hash() 12081 MB/s ksm: xxh64 hash() 8770 MB/s ksm: xxh32 hash() 4529 MB/s ksm: jhash2 hash() 1569 MB/s Sioh Lee did some testing: crc32c_intel: 1084.10ns crc32c (no hardware acceleration): 7012.51ns xxhash32: 2227.75ns xxhash64: 1413.16ns jhash2: 5128.30ns As jhash2 always will be slower (for data size like PAGE_SIZE). Don't use it in ksm at all. Use only xxhash for now, because for using crc32c, cryptoapi must be initialized first - that requires some tricky solution to work well in all situations.

This should improve ksm performance in some way.
