The patchset looks good to me for nf-next, thanks!

Pablo, Florian, as a bugfix this patchset missed
the chance to be applied before the changes that are in
nf-next in ip_vs.h, there is little fuzz there. If there
is no chance to resolve it somehow, we can apply it
on top of nf-next where it now applies successfully.
