base: Add XOR-based hashed address interleaving

This patch extends the current address interleaving with basic hashing
support. Instead of directly comparing a number of address bits with a
matching value, it is now possible to use two independent set of
address bits XOR'ed together. This avoids issues where strided address
patterns are heavily biased to a subset of the interleaved ranges.
