Subject: [PATCH 16/29] l2tp: fix up incorrect comment in l2tp_recv_common

RFC2661 section 5.4 states that:

"The LNS controls enabling and disabling of sequence numbers by sending a
data message with or without sequence numbers present at any time during
the life of a session."

l2tp handles this correctly in l2tp_recv_common, but the comment around
the code was incorrect and confusing.  Fix up the comment accordingly.
