[PATCH nf v3 0/2] ipvs: fix destination overload state updates

IPVS updates a destination's overload status from connection accounting
and destination configuration paths, while schedulers read it from packet
processing paths.

Patch 1, authored by Julian, updates the overload state whenever a
destination's connection thresholds change. It also limits the upper
threshold to the range that can be compared safely with the connection
counter.

Patch 2 moves overload state out of dest->flags, which it previously
shared with the independent availability state. It uses a separate bitset
and bitops so updates to the two states cannot clobber each other. KCSAN
reports the original race between __ip_vs_update_dest() and
ip_vs_sh_schedule(), as well as between ip_vs_bind_dest() and the SH
scheduler.

The series keeps reader-side synchronization lightweight. test_bit() does
not provide a fresh cross-field snapshot, so schedulers may still observe
stale destination state as they could before this change.

Changes in v3:
- Add Julian's fix to properly refresh OVERLOAD on destination edit and 
reject upper thresholds above INT_MAX before comparing them with the signed
connection counter as patch 1/2.
- Keep AVAILABLE in dest->flags and move OVERLOAD to a separate bitset.
