Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/5] net: l2tp: fix L2TP_ATTR_UDP_CSUM attribute type

L2TP_ATTR_UDP_CSUM is a flag, and gets read with
nla_get_flag, but it is defined as NLA_U8 in
the nla_policy.

It appears that this is only publicly used in
iproute2, where it's broken, because it's used as
a NLA_FLAG, and fails validation as a NLA_U8.

The only place it's used as a NLA_U8 is in
l2tp_nl_tunnel_send(), but iproute2 again reads that
as a flag, it's therefore always set. Fortunately
it is never used for anything, just read.
