Subject: [PATCH] [IPV4] LVS: Allow to send ICMP unreachable responses when
real-servers are removed
this is a small patch by Janusz Krzysztofik to ip_route_output_slow()
that allows VIP-less LVS linux director to generate packets
originating >From VIP if sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind is set.
In a nutshell, the intention is for an LVS linux director to be able
to send ICMP unreachable responses to end-users when real-servers are
removed.
