Subject: [PATCH] ipvs: Fix possible deadlock in sync code
Commit 998e7a76804b7a273a0460c2cdd5a51fa9856717 ("ipvs: Use kthread_run()
instead of doing a double-fork via kernel_thread()") introduced a possible
deadlock in the sync code. We need to use the _bh versions for the lock, as the
lock is also accessed from a bottom half.
