Store the Maglev hash lookup table in the scheduler state allocation instead of allocating it separately. This keeps the lookup table tied to the RCU-freed state lifetime and simplifies the allocation and cleanup paths. Assisted-by: Codex:GPT-5.5 Signed-off-by: Rosen Penev <redacted>
Thanks for the efforts but it is better to keep the table allocated separately. As Sashiko [1] points out, the table size is properly selected and we risk double-sized allocations if we apply this patch. As for the problem in ip_vs_edit_service(), I have to provide separate bugfix...
