I've implemented it in my siphash kernel branch:

https://git.zx2c4.com/linux-dev/log/?h=siphash

It's the commit that has "HalfSipHash" in the log message. As the
structure is nearly identical to SipHash, there wasn't a lot to
change, and so the same implementation strategy exists for each.

When you've finished your security review and feel good about it, some
test vectors using the same formula (key={0x03020100, 07060504},
input={0x0, 0x1, 0x2, 0x3...}, output=test_vectors) would be nice for
verification.
