[PATCH] ipvs: fix dst_lock locking on dest update

From: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
Date: 2011-03-01 22:59:35
Also in: lvs-devel, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: ipvs, netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Simon Horman, Julian Anastasov, Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>

	Fix dst_lock usage in __ip_vs_update_dest. We need
_bh locking because destination is updated in user context.
Can cause lockups on frequent destination updates.
Problem reported by Simon Kirby. Bug was introduced
in 2.6.37 from the "ipvs: changes for local real server"
change.
