ipvs: Fix possible deadlock in estimator code
There is a slight chance for a deadlock in the estimator code. We can't call del_timer_sync() while holding our lock, as the timer might be active and spinning for the lock on another cpu. Work around this issue by using try_to_del_timer_sync() and releasing the lock. We could actually delete the timer outside of our lock, as the add and kill functions are only every called from userspace via [gs]etsockopt() and are serialized by a mutex, but better make this explicit.
