[PATCH 3.16 160/294] l2tp: hold tunnel while handling genl TUNNEL_GET commands

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Mon Nov 06 2017 - 19:36:05 EST


3.16.50-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4e4b21da3acc68a7ea55f850cacc13706b7480e9 upstream.

Use l2tp_tunnel_get() instead of l2tp_tunnel_find() so that we get
a reference on the tunnel, preventing l2tp_tunnel_destruct() from
freeing it from under us.

Also move l2tp_tunnel_get() below nlmsg_new() so that we only take
the reference when needed.

Fixes: 309795f4bec2 ("l2tp: Add netlink control API for L2TP")
