Subject: [PATCH 3.2 73/94] l2tp: hold socket before dropping lock in
 l2tp_ip{, 6}_recv()

3.2.97-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@...halink.fr>

commit a3c18422a4b4e108bcf6a2328f48867e1003fd95 upstream.

Socket must be held while under the protection of the l2tp lock; there
is no guarantee that sk remains valid after the read_unlock_bh() call.

Same issue for l2tp_ip and l2tp_ip6.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - Drop changes in l2tp_ip6.c
 - Adjust context]
