When L2TP is configured as a module, requests for L2TP sockets do not result
in the l2tp_ppp module being loaded. Fix this by adding the appropriate
MODULE_ALIAS to be recognized by pppox's request_module() call.

Please start adding proper subsystem/driver prefixes to your
Subject lines when submitting patches, I'm getting tired of
continually having to add them for you. For this patch
"l2tp: " would have been appropriate.
Applied, thanks.
