ipvs: allow rescheduling of new connections when port reuse is detected
Currently, when TCP/SCTP port reusing happens, IPVS will find the old entry and use it for the new one, behaving like a forced persistence. But if you consider a cluster with a heavy load of small connections, such reuse will happen often and may lead to a not optimal load balancing and might prevent a new node from getting a fair load. This patch introduces a new sysctl, conn_reuse_mode, that allows controlling how to proceed when port reuse is detected. The default value will allow rescheduling of new connections only if the old entry was in TIME_WAIT state for TCP or CLOSED for SCTP.
