[ovs-dev] [PATCH V2 2/3] compat: Fix build issue on RHEL 7.7

RHEL 7.2 introduced a KABI fixup in struct sk_buff for the name
change of  l4_rxhash to l4_hash.  Then patch
9ba57fc7cccc ("datapath: Add hash info to upcall") introduced a
compile error by using l4_hash and not fixing up the HAVE_L4_RXHASH
configuration flag.

Remove all references to HAVE_L4_RXHASH and always use l4_hash to
resolve the issue.  This will break compilation on RHEL 7.0 and
RHEL 7.1 but dropping support for these older kernels shouldn't be
a problem.

Fixes: 9ba57fc7cccc ("datapath: Add hash info to upcall")

V2 - Just removes l4_rxhash and ends support for RHEL 7.x < 7.2
