Subject: [PATCH net v4] net: atm: Fix incorrect net_device lec check
There are two sites in atm mpoa code that believe the fetched object
net_device is of lec type. However, both of them do just name checking
to ensure that the device name starts with "lec" pattern string.
That is, malicious user can hijack this by creating another device
starting with that pattern, thereby causing type confusion. For example,
create a *team* interface with lecX name, bind that interface and send
messages will get a crash like below:

Correctly validating the net_device object has several methods. For
example, function xgbe_netdev_event() checks `netdev_ops` field,
function clip_device_event() checks `type` field. Considering the
related variable `lec_netdev_ops` is not defined in the same file, so
introduce another type value `ARPHRD_ATM_LANE` for a simple and correct
check.
By the way, this bug dates back to pre-git history (2.3.15), hence use
the first reference for tracking.

V3 -> V4: Fix the linking issue reported by intel kernel test robot.
see details in https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202507050831.2GTrUnFN-lkp@intel.com/
As pointed out by Simon <horms@...nel.org>, not using netdev_ops
for check in this case
