    ipvs: fix WARNING in __ip_vs_cleanup_batch()

    During the initialization of ip_vs_conn_net_init(), if file ip_vs_conn
    or ip_vs_conn_sync fails to be created, the initialization is successful
    by default. Therefore, the ip_vs_conn or ip_vs_conn_sync file doesn’t
    be found during the remove.
