Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] l2tp: remove unused code

Patch #1 removes the ref/deref mechanism that was originally used to
prevent ppp pseudowires from dropping their sockets. This mechanism
was error prone and isn't used anymore.

Patch #2 removes some module specific refcount debugging.
Patches #3 and #4 take care of some dead code.

Guillaume Nault (4):
  l2tp: remove ->ref() and ->deref()
  l2tp: remove l2tp specific refcount debugging
  l2tp: remove l2tp_tunnel_count and l2tp_session_count
  l2tp: remove field 'dev' from struct l2tp_eth
