Use goto cleanup instead of return ret;

You have to call ip_vs_protocol_net_cleanup(net) here
because if ip_vs_protocol_net_init fails it is not called.
Your change is not enough.

To avoid compiler warnings when no protocol is
configured, may be it is better to add all protos in array:

static struct ip_vs_protocol *protos[] = {
#ifdef CONFIG_IP_VS_PROTO_TCP
&ip_vs_protocol_tcp,
#endif
...
};

Then we can loop where needed:

for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(protos); i++) {
ret = register_ip_vs_proto_netns(net, protos[i]);
if (ret < 0)
goto cleanup;
}
return 0;

cleanup:
ip_vs_protocol_net_cleanup(net);
return ret;

I rely on you also to change the GFP_ATOMIC in
register_ip_vs_proto_netns. Let me know if you plan
to make these changes or prefer someone else to take care.
