Hi,

I am awfully sorry that I forget to add write_unlock_bh() in a place
in the ip_vs_del_dest() function. It's a serious bug. It was fixed.

Tomorrow I will release a new patch, more features will be added
there. You can build a virtual server of 2000 connections/seconds
with it. :-)

Thanks,

Wensong
