IPVS netns exit causes crash in conntrack
Quote from Patric Mc Hardy "This looks like nfnetlink.c excited and destroyed the nfnl socket, but ip_vs was still holding a reference to a conntrack. When the conntrack got destroyed it created a ctnetlink event, causing an oops in netlink_has_listeners when trying to use the destroyed nfnetlink socket." If nf_conntrack_netlink is loaded before ip_vs this is not a problem. This patch simply avoids calling ip_vs_conn_drop_conntrack() when netns is dying as suggested by Julian.
