Subject[PATCH] ipvs: avoid drop first packet to reuse conntrack
Since 'commit f719e3754ee2 ("ipvs: drop first packet to
redirect conntrack")', when a new TCP connection meet
the conditions that need reschedule, the first syn packet
is dropped, this cause one second latency for the new
connection, more discussion about this problem can easy
search from google, such as:

1)One second connection delay in masque
https://marc.info/?t=151683118100004&r=1&w=2

2)IPVS low throughput #70747
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/70747

3)Apache Bench can fill up ipvs service proxy in seconds #544
https://github.com/cloudnativelabs/kube-router/issues/544

4)Additional 1s latency in `host -> service IP -> pod`
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/90854

The root cause is when the old session is expired, the
conntrack related to the session is dropped by
ip_vs_conn_drop_conntrack. The code is as follows:
```
static void ip_vs_conn_expire(struct timer_list *t)
{
...

if ((cp->flags & IP_VS_CONN_F_NFCT) &&
!(cp->flags & IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET)) {
/* Do not access conntracks during subsys cleanup
* because nf_conntrack_find_get can not be used after
* conntrack cleanup for the net.
*/
smp_rmb();
if (ipvs->enable)
ip_vs_conn_drop_conntrack(cp);
}
...
}
```
As the code show, only if the condition (cp->flags & IP_VS_CONN_F_NFCT)
is true, ip_vs_conn_drop_conntrack will be called.
So we solve this bug by following steps:
1) erase the IP_VS_CONN_F_NFCT flag (it is safely because no packets will
use the old session)
2) call ip_vs_conn_expire_now to release the old session, then the related
conntrack will not be dropped
3) then ipvs unnecessary to drop the first syn packet,
it just continue to pass the syn packet to the next process,
create a new ipvs session, and the new session will related to
the old conntrack(which is reopened by conntrack as a new one),
the next whole things is just as normal as that the old session
isn't used to exist.
