This is not the "UDP Hash Function", it is a mask to bring
the hash value modulo of the hash table size.

So your function name is misleading and makes the code
even worse.

I'm also not so sure this cleanup really adds any clarity,
even with a proper function name.

I can only assume you wish to do something with the UDP hash table
sizes, and therefore only want to have a need to touch one function.
