Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 2/5] l2tp: double-check l2specific_type provided by userspace

Add sanity check on l2specific_type provided by userspace in
l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create() since just L2TP_L2SPECTYPE_DEFAULT and
L2TP_L2SPECTYPE_NONE are currently supported.
Moreover do not always initialize l2specific_type if userspace requests
a given l2-specific sublayer type
