Julian Anastasov 4a15044a2b ipvs: add conn_max sysctl to limit connections
Currently, we are using atomic_t to track the number of
connections. On 64-bit setups with large memory there is
a risk this counter to overflow. Also, setups with many
containers may need to tune the limit for connections.

Add sysctl control to limit the number of connections to
1,073,741,824 (64-bit) and 16,777,216 (32-bit).
Depending on the admin's privilege, the value is
used to change a soft or hard limit allowing
unprivileged admins to change the soft limit in
range determined by privileged admins.
