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. Signed-off-by: Sven Wegener <sven.wegener@stealer.net> Acked-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
