Only two major comments:

1) Uses own linked list implementations.  Please use
   linux/list.h interfaces for this.

2) Does this:

 struct sockaddr_pppox { 
        sa_family_t     sa_family;            /* address family, AF_PPPOX */ 
        unsigned int    sa_protocol;          /* protocol identifier */ 
        union{ 
                struct pppoe_addr       pppoe; 
+               struct pppol2tp_addr    pppol2tp;
        }sa_addr; 
 }__attribute__ ((packed)); 

   Change the size of sockaddr_pppox on any platform?  If so, you'll
   break pppox userspace with this change so we'd need find another
   way to do it.

Thanks.
