This being a high performance hash function and all, why not something
like:

+static __u32 uchar_hack_hash (const char *name, int len)
+...

+static __u32 char_hack_hash (const char *name, int len)
+...

+static __u32 dx_hack_hash(const char *name, int len, int unsigned_flag)
+{
+ if (unsigned_flag)
+ return uchar_hack_hash(name, len);
+ return char_hack_hash(name, len);
+}
