This patch adds a new L2TPIP socket family and modifies the core to
handle the case where there is no UDP header in the L2TP
packet. L2TP/IP uses IP protocol 115. Since L2TP/UDP and L2TP/IP
packets differ in layout, the datapath packet handling code needs
changes too. Userspace uses an L2TPIP socket instead of a UDP socket
when IP encapsulation is required.
We can't use raw sockets for this because the semantics of raw sockets
don't lend themselves to the socket-per-tunnel model - we need to

This patch splits the pppol2tp driver into separate L2TP and PPP parts
to prepare for L2TPv3 support. In L2TPv3, protocols other than PPP can
be carried, so this split creates a common L2TP core that will handle
the common L2TP bits which protocol support modules such as PPP will
use.
Note that the existing pppol2tp module is split into l2tp_core and
l2tp_ppp by this change.
There are no feature changes here. Internally, however, there are
significant changes, mostly to handle the separation of PPP-specific
data from the L2TP session and to provide hooks in the core for
modules like PPP to access.

This patch moves the existing pppol2tp driver from drivers/net into a
new net/l2tp directory, which is where the upcoming L2TPv3 code will
live. The existing CONFIG_PPPOL2TP config option is left in its
current place to avoid "make oldconfig" issues when an existing
pppol2tp user takes this change. (This is the same approach used for
the pppoatm driver, which moved to net/atm.)
There are no code changes. The existing drivers/net/pppol2tp.c is
simply moved to net/l2tp.
