Subject: [PATCH net-next] l2tp: give proper headroom in pppol2tp_xmit()

pppol2tp_xmit() calls skb_cow_head(skb, 2) before calling
l2tp_xmit_skb()

Then l2tp_xmit_skb() calls again skb_cow_head(skb, large_headroom)

This patchs changes the first skb_cow_head() call to supply the needed
headroom to make sure at most one (expensive) pskb_expand_head() is
done.

Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@...il.com>

Maybe we should add a counter to help diagnose too many
pskb_expand_head() calls...
