Currently when forwarding requests to real servers we use dst_lock and atomic operations when cloning the dst_cache value. As the dst_cache value does not change most of the time it is better to use RCU and to lock dst_lock only when we need to replace the obsoleted dst. For this to work we keep dst_cache in new structure protected by RCU. For packets to remote real servers we will use noref version of dst_cache, it will be valid while we are in RCU read-side critical section because now dst_release for replaced dsts will be invoked after the grace period. Packets to local real servers that are passed to local stack with NF_ACCEPT need a dst clone.
