Christian Göttsche 32db469edf selinux: improve symtab string hashing
The number of buckets is calculated by performing a binary AND against
the mask of the hash table, which is one less than its size (which is a
power of two).  This leads to all top bits being discarded, requiring
for short or similar inputs a hash function with a good avalanche
effect.

Use djb2a:

    # current
