Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 11/16] l2tp: do session destroy using a workqueue

Handle session destroy in the same way as we handle tunnel destroy -
through a workqueue. Sessions can be destroyed either because its
socket is closed (if it has a socket) or by netlink request. A
workqueue synchronises these.
