Minor nit: I'd prefer to keep the space after '{' and before '}'.
I didn't want to bother you with this, but since it seems you'll have
to repost...

Same here.

BTW, I thought you also wanted to remove the static ppph variable
from pppol2tp_xmit() / pppol2tp_sendmsg(), to directly assign
skb->data[0/1] with PPP_ALLSTATIONS/PPP_UI.
