Merge branch 'l2tp-mtu'
Guillaume Nault says:
====================
l2tp: sanitise MTU handling on sessions
Most of the code handling sessions' MTU has no effect. The ->mtu field
in struct l2tp_session might be used at session creation time, but
neither PPP nor Ethernet pseudo-wires take updates into account.
L2TP sessions don't have a concept of MTU, which is the reason why
->mtu is mostly ignored. MTU should remain a network device thing.
Therefore this patch set does not try to propagate/update ->mtu to/from
the device. That would complicate the code unnecessarily. Instead this
field and the associated ioctl commands and netlink attributes are
removed.
Patch #1 defines l2tp_tunnel_dst_mtu() in order to simplify the
following patches. Then patches #2 and #3 remove MTU handling from PPP
and Ethernet pseudo-wires respectively.
