ipvs: preparations for using rcu in schedulers
Allow schedulers to use rcu_dereference when
returning destination on lookup. The RCU read-side critical
section will allow ip_vs_bind_dest to get dest refcnt as
preparation for the step where destinations will be
deleted without an IP_VS_WAIT_WHILE guard that holds the
packet processing during update.
Add new optional scheduler methods add_dest,
del_dest and upd_dest. For now the methods are called
together with update_service but update_service will be
removed in a following change.
