ipvs: flush defense_work before module unload
net/ipv4/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c module_exit ip_vs_cleanup ip_vs_control_cleanup cancel_rearming_delayed_work // done This is unsafe. The module may be unloaded and the memory may be freed while defense_work's handler is still running/preempted. Do flush_work(&defense_work.work) after cancel_rearming_delayed_work(). Alternatively, we could add flush_work() to cancel_rearming_delayed_work(), but note that we can't change cancel_delayed_work() in the same manner because it may be called from atomic context.
