[ Upstream commit 2a27a03d3a891e87ca33d27a858b4db734a4cbab ]

__pppoe_xmit function return value was invalid resulting in
additional call to kfree_skb on already freed skb. This resulted in
memory corruption and consequent kernel panic after PPPoE peer
terminated the link.

This fixes commit 55c95e738da85373965cb03b4f975d0fd559865b.
