        <pre>The configuration I use is a NixOS keepalived setup on AWS (which uses Xen)
configured with per packet round robin routing in a direct routing setup, which
in turn uses ipvs.

Symptoms are ksoftirqd using 100% of the CPU resulting in what looks like a DoS
attack on the machine. 

The module repeatedly crashes when in this mode with a message similar to the
one below.

[root@keepalive:~]# uname -a
Linux keepalive 4.15.17 #1-NixOS SMP Thu Apr 12 10:31:21 UTC 2018 x86_64
GNU/Linux

It is the same problem as described on
<a href="https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/39078">https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/39078</a>.
