ipvs: avoid rcu_barrier during netns cleanup
commit 578bc3ef ("ipvs: reorganize dest trash") added rcu_barrier() on cleanup to wait dest users and schedulers like LBLC and LBLCR to put their last dest reference. Using rcu_barrier with many namespaces is problematic. Trying to fix it by freeing dest with kfree_rcu is not a solution, RCU callbacks can run in parallel and execution order is random. Fix it by creating new function ip_vs_dest_put_and_free() which is heavier than ip_vs_dest_put(). We will use it just for schedulers like LBLC, LBLCR that can delay their dest release. By default, dests reference is above 0 if they are present in service and it is 0 when deleted but still in trash list. Change the dest trash code to use ip_vs_dest_put_and_free(), so that refcnt -1 can be used for freeing. As result, such checks remain in slow path and the rcu_barrier() from netns cleanup can be removed. Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
