Subject: [PATCH 03/41] ipvs: stop tot_stats estimator only under CONFIG_SYSCTL

commit 9802d21e7a0b0d2167ef745edc1f4ea7a0fc6ea3 upstream.

The tot_stats estimator is started only when CONFIG_SYSCTL
is defined. But it is stopped without checking CONFIG_SYSCTL.
Fix the crash by moving ip_vs_stop_estimator into
ip_vs_control_net_cleanup_sysctl.

The change is needed after commit 14e405461e664b
("IPVS: Add __ip_vs_control_{init,cleanup}_sysctl()") from 2.6.39.
