Subject: [GIT PULL nf-next] IPVS Updates for v4.8

Hi Pablo,

please consider these enhancements to the IPVS. This alters the behaviour
of the "least connection" schedulers such that pre-established connections
are included in the active connection count. This avoids overloading
servers when a large number of new connections arrive in a short space of
time - e.g. when clients reconnect after a node or network failure.

The following changes since commit c6ac37d8d8843fb1fdc34e4a2a41a4f027ab670c:

  netfilter: nf_log: fix error on write NONE to logger choice sysctl (2016-07-05 14:57:57 +0200)
