Thomas, thanks a lot. It appears this issue will not happen on
mainline since from commit  765924e362d1  (subject "l2tp: don't close
sessions in l2tp_tunnel_destruct()"), l2tp_tunnel_closeall is no
longer called from l2tp_tunnel_destruct. From that commit message it
seems one of the motivations is to solve scheduling from atomic issue.

However for this change to be applied to android-4.9 and/or 4.9
stable, it depends on several other l2p patches and they aren't
straight forward cherry-picks from mainline (and I don't have much
background with this driver).

v3.16.56 stable seems to be further along with l2tp than v4.9.89, in
that it atleast has more of the upstream patches adapted for it, that
the above patch depends on. Since this also related to stable, I am
CC'ing Greg kh and Ben.

Here are some of the commits in 3.16 stable that I couldn't find
applied to v4.9 stable. The above fix quotes the below patches as
dependencies so they would need to be stable backported. Also CC'ing
Guillaume since he authored the above mentioned fix.

0c15ddabbcf l2tp: don't register sessions in l2tp_session_create()
a3c5d5b70f4e l2tp: fix race condition in l2tp_tunnel_delete
5b216e8dcda2 l2tp: prevent creation of sessions on terminated tunnels
76ff5e22f1e0 l2tp: hold tunnel while looking up sessions in l2tp_netlink
ceb8f6b23a38 l2tp: define parameters of l2tp_session_get*() as "const"
0295d020b63f l2tp: initialise session's refcount before making it reachable
29a77518927e l2tp: take reference on sessions being dumped
b301c9b7782f l2tp: take a reference on sessions used in genetlink handlers

By the way I think the reason why scheduling while atomic checks
didn't show up is because the debugobjects warning caused a panic
first, before that could happen.

- Joel

PS: There's also 12d656af4e3d2 ("l2tp: Avoid schedule while atomic in
exit_net") which was fixing a call to synchronize_rcu in the same
path/function, but the caller originated from l2tp_exit_net. But this
patch is already in the stable trees. I am just mentioning it here for
completeness.
