l2tp: Fix locking in l2tp_core.c
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
l2tp_xmit_skb() must take the socket lock.  It makes use of ip_queue_xmit()
which expects to execute in a socket atomic context.

Since we execute this function in software interrupts, we cannot use the
usual lock_sock()/release_sock() sequence, instead we have to use
bh_lock_sock() and see if a user has the socket locked, and if so drop
the packet.
