Hello,
I noticed that if i specify -j SNAT with options --random --random-fully
still it keeps persistence for source IP.
Actually truly random src ip required in some scenarios like links
balanced by IPs, but seems since 2012 at least it is not possible.
But actually if i do something like:

+++ nf_nat_core.c 2016-11-21 09:11:59.000000000 +0000

- j = jhash2((u32 *)&tuple->src.u3, sizeof(tuple->src.u3) /
sizeof(u32),

full_range = false;
for (i = 0; i <= max; i++) {
It works as intended. But i guess to not break compatibility it is
better should be introduced as new option?
Or maybe there is no really need for such option?
