IPVS: Change of socket usage to enable name space exit.
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.
