[ original diff was against and older tree, sorry; rediffed against net-next ] Since commit dc7b3eb9 (ipvs: Fix reuse connection if real server is dead), new connections to dead servers are redistributed immediately to new servers. The old connection is expired using ip_vs_conn_expire_now() which sets the connection timer to expire immediately. However, before the timer callback, ip_vs_conn_expire(), is run to clean the connection's conntrack entry, the new redistributed connection may already be established and its conntrack removed instead. Fix this by dropping the first packet of the new connection instead, like we do when the destination server is not available. The timer will have deleted the old conntrack entry long before the first packet of the new connection is retransmitted.
