[NETFILTER]: ipt_CLUSTERIP: fix race between clusterip_config_find_get and _entry_put

Consider we are putting a clusterip_config entry with the "entries"
count == 1, and on the other CPU there's a clusterip_config_find_get
in progress:

CPU1:							CPU2:
clusterip_config_entry_put:				clusterip_config_find_get:
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&c->entries)) {
	/* true */
							read_lock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
							c = __clusterip_config_find(clusterip);
							/* found - it's still in list */
							...
							atomic_inc(&c->entries);
							read_unlock_bh(&clusterip_lock);

	write_lock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
	list_del(&c->list);
	write_unlock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
	...
	dev_put(c->dev);

Oops! We have an entry returned by the clusterip_config_find_get,
which is a) not in list b) has a stale dev pointer.

The problems will happen when the CPU2 will release the entry - it
will remove it from the list for the 2nd time, thus spoiling it, and
will put a stale dev pointer.

The fix is to make atomic_dec_and_test under the clusterip_lock.
