Subject: [PATCH] Move IPVS from net/ipv4/ipvs to net/netfilter/ipvs in preparation for IPv6 support

Hi,

I'm resending this since I didn't get any feedback on it the first
time around. I redid the patch to apply to the current net-2.6 tree.
Please let me know if there are any issues with it!

Thanks,
Julius
