Some changes to the TCP fastopen code to make it more robust
against future changes in the choice of key/cookie size, etc.

- Instead of keeping the SipHash key in an untyped u8[] buffer
  and casting it to the right type upon use, use the correct
  siphash_key_t type directly. This ensures that the key will
  appear at the correct alignment if we ever change the way
  these data structures are allocated. (Currently, they are
  only allocated via kmalloc so they always appear at the
  correct alignment)

- Use DIV_ROUND_UP when sizing the u64[] array to hold the
  cookie, so it is always of sufficient size, even when
  TCP_FASTOPEN_COOKIE_MAX is no longer a multiple of 8.

- Add a key length check to tcp_fastopen_reset_cipher(). No
  callers exist currently that fail this check (they all pass
  compile constant values that equal TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY_LENGTH),
  but future changes might create problems, e.g., by leaving part
  of the key uninitialized, or overflowing the key buffers.

Note that none of these are functional changes wrt the current
state of the code.

This tcp_fastopen_reset_cipher() function is internal to TCP stack, all callers
always pass the correct length.

We could add checks all over the place, and end up having a TCP stack
full of defensive
checks and 10,000 additional lines of code :/

I would prefer not reinstating this.

The length parameter makes no sense if it's not checked, though.  Either it
should exist and be checked, or it should be removed and the length should be
implicitly TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY_LENGTH.
