Subject: [PATCH net 0/3] l2tp: remove unsafe calls to l2tp_tunnel_find_nth()

Using l2tp_tunnel_find_nth() is racy, because the returned tunnel can
go away as soon as this function returns. This series introduce
l2tp_tunnel_get_nth() as a safe replacement to fixes these races.

With this series, all unsafe tunnel/session lookups are finally gone.

Guillaume Nault (3):
  l2tp: hold reference on tunnels in netlink dumps
  l2tp: hold reference on tunnels printed in pppol2tp proc file
  l2tp: hold reference on tunnels printed in l2tp/tunnels debugfs file
