    IPVS: Change of socket usage to enable name space exit. · 1ae132b0
    Hans Schillstrom authored
    If the sync daemons run in a name space while it crashes
    or get killed, there is no way to stop them except for a reboot.
    When all patches are there, ip_vs_core will handle register_pernet_(),
    i.e. ip_vs_sync_init() and ip_vs_sync_cleanup() will be removed.
    
    Kernel threads should not increment the use count of a socket.
    By calling sk_change_net() after creating a socket this is avoided.
    sock_release cant be used intead sk_release_kernel() should be used.
    
    Thanks Eric W Biederman for your advices.
