Does the siphash_key really need to be percpu?
The counter is different of course.
Alternative would be to siphash a few prandom_u32 results
if the extra u64 is too much storage.

[..]

Can't we keep prandom_u32 as-is...?  Most of the usage, esp. in the
packet schedulers, is fine.

I'd much rather have a prandom_u32_hashed() or whatever for
those cases where some bits might leak to the outside and then convert
those prandom_u32 users over to the siphashed version.
