[ Upstream commit 8b82547e33e85fc24d4d172a93c796de1fefa81a ]

The sendmsg() syscall handler for PPPoL2TP doesn't decrease the socket
reference counter after successful transmissions. Any successful
sendmsg() call from userspace will then increase the reference counter
forever, thus preventing the kernel's session and tunnel data from
being freed later on.

The problem only happens when writing directly on L2TP sockets.
PPP sockets attached to L2TP are unaffected as the PPP subsystem
uses pppol2tp_xmit() which symmetrically increase/decrease reference
counters.

This patch adds the missing call to sock_put() before returning from
pppol2tp_sendmsg().

[ Upstream commit 789336360e0a2aeb9750c16ab704a02cbe035e9e ]

When creating an L2TPv3 Ethernet session, if register_netdev() should fail for
any reason (for example, automatic naming for "l2tpeth%d" interfaces hits the
32k-interface limit), the netdev is freed in the error path.  However, the
l2tp_eth_sess structure's dev pointer is left uncleared, and this results in
l2tp_eth_delete() then attempting to unregister the same netdev later in the
session teardown.  This results in an oops.

To avoid this, clear the session dev pointer in the error path.

a race, in case IP route cache is disabled.

In this case, we should not do the dst_release(&amp;rt-&gt;dst), since it'll
free the dst immediately, instead of waiting a RCU grace period.

[ Upstream commit c51ce49735c183ef2592db70f918ee698716276b ]

An application may call connect() to disconnect a socket using an
address with family AF_UNSPEC. The L2TP IP sockets were not handling
this case when the socket is not bound and an attempt to connect()
using AF_UNSPEC in such cases would result in an oops. This patch
addresses the problem by protecting the sk_prot-&gt;disconnect() call
against trying to unhash the socket before it is bound.

The patch also adds more checks that the sockaddr supplied to bind()
and connect() calls is valid.

Applications using L2TP/IP sockets want to be able to bind() an L2TP/IP
socket to set the local tunnel id while leaving the auto-assigned source
address alone. So if no source address is supplied, don't overwrite
the address already stored in the socket.
