commit e702c1204eb57788ef189c839c8c779368267d70 upstream.

Use l2tp_tunnel_get() to retrieve tunnel, so that it can't go away on
us. Otherwise l2tp_tunnel_destruct() might release the last reference
count concurrently, thus freeing the tunnel while we're using it.

commit af87ae465abdc070de0dc35d6c6a9e7a8cd82987 upstream.

There's no point in checking for duplicate sessions at the beginning of
l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create(); the -&gt;session_create() callbacks already
return -EEXIST when the session already exists.

Furthermore, even if l2tp_session_find() returns NULL, a new session
might be created right after the test. So relying on -&gt;session_create()
to avoid duplicate session is the only sane behaviour.

commit 4e4b21da3acc68a7ea55f850cacc13706b7480e9 upstream.

Use l2tp_tunnel_get() instead of l2tp_tunnel_find() so that we get
a reference on the tunnel, preventing l2tp_tunnel_destruct() from
freeing it from under us.

Also move l2tp_tunnel_get() below nlmsg_new() so that we only take
the reference when needed.

commit 54652eb12c1b72e9602d09cb2821d5760939190f upstream.

l2tp_tunnel_find() doesn't take a reference on the returned tunnel.
Therefore, it's unsafe to use it because the returned tunnel can go
away on us anytime.

Fix this by defining l2tp_tunnel_get(), which works like
l2tp_tunnel_find(), but takes a reference on the returned tunnel.
Caller then has to drop this reference using l2tp_tunnel_dec_refcount().

As l2tp_tunnel_dec_refcount() needs to be moved to l2tp_core.h, let's
simplify the patch and not move the L2TP_REFCNT_DEBUG part. This code
has been broken (not even compiling) in May 2012 by
commit a4ca44fa578c ("net: l2tp: Standardize logging styles")
and fixed more than two years later by
commit 29abe2fda54f ("l2tp: fix missing line continuation"). So it
doesn't appear to be used by anyone.

Same thing for l2tp_tunnel_free(); instead of moving it to l2tp_core.h,
let's just simplify things and call kfree_rcu() directly in
l2tp_tunnel_dec_refcount(). Extra assertions and debugging code
provided by l2tp_tunnel_free() didn't help catching any of the
reference counting and socket handling issues found while working on
this series.
