Can you better explain in commit message that we are changing
expire_nodest_conn to work even for reused connections when
conn_reuse_mode=0 but without affecting the controlled/persistent
connections during the grace period while server is with weight=0.

Even if you target -next trees adding commit d752c3645717
as Fixes line would be a good idea. Make sure the tree is specified
after the v3 tag.

It is even better to move the !cp->control check above:

if (!iph.fragoffs && is_new_conn(skb, &iph) && cp && !cp->control) {

Then is not needed in is_new_conn_expected() anymore.

And now you can move conn_reuse_mode here:

int conn_reuse_mode = sysctl_conn_reuse_mode(ipvs);
