NULL pointer might be used in ips_monitor()

 The patch is to create ips_adjust thread before ips_monitor begins
 to run  because the latter will kthread_stop() or wake up the former
 via ips->adjust pointer. Without this change, it is possible that
 ips->adjust is NULL when kthread_stop() or wake_up_process() is
 called in ips_monitor().
