Agree. It is not a frequently called routine, so we kept it here.

Sorry, I don't get this. Why do we need to change this ?

I think we can replace mutex in ip_vs_genl_dump_services() by RCU.
Do you prefer replacing it in this patch or later ?

OK, will fix in the next version.

Yes, we do missed those details. I think moving those into different
netns is good, besides we already have netns supported. So why not do
it more completely ?

If it is convenient for you to do more optimizations, we would greatly
appreciate it !
