l2tp_tunnel_destruct() sets tunnel->sock to NULL, then removes the
tunnel from the pernet list and finally closes all its sessions.
Therefore, it's possible to add a session to a tunnel that is still
reachable, but for which tunnel->sock has already been reset. This can
make l2tp_session_create() dereference a NULL pointer when calling
sock_hold(tunnel->sock).
This patch adds the .acpt_newsess field to struct l2tp_tunnel, which is
used by l2tp_tunnel_closeall() to prevent addition of new sessions to
tunnels. Resetting tunnel->sock is done after l2tp_tunnel_closeall()
returned, so that l2tp_session_add_to_tunnel() can safely take a
reference on it when .acpt_newsess is true.
The .acpt_newsess field is modified in l2tp_tunnel_closeall(), rather
than in l2tp_tunnel_destruct(), so that it benefits all tunnel removal
mechanisms. E.g. on UDP tunnels, a session could be added to a tunnel
after l2tp_udp_encap_destroy() proceeded. This would prevent the tunnel
from being removed because of the references held by this new session
on the tunnel and its socket. Even though the session could be removed
manually later on, this defeats the purpose of
commit 9980d001cec8 ("l2tp: add udp encap socket destroy handler").

Using l2tp_tunnel_find() in pppol2tp_session_create() and
l2tp_eth_create() is racy, because no reference is held on the
returned session. These functions are only used to implement the
->session_create callback which is run by l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create().
Therefore searching for the parent tunnel isn't necessary because
l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create() already has a pointer to it and holds a
reference.
This patch modifies ->session_create()'s prototype to directly pass the
the parent tunnel as parameter, thus avoiding searching for it in
pppol2tp_session_create() and l2tp_eth_create().
Since we have to touch the ->session_create() call in
l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create(), let's also remove the useless conditional:
we know that ->session_create isn't NULL at this point because it's
already been checked earlier in this same function.
Finally, one might be tempted to think that the removed
l2tp_tunnel_find() calls were harmless because they would return the
same tunnel as the one held by l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create() anyway.
But that tunnel might be removed and a new one created with same tunnel
Id before the l2tp_tunnel_find() call. In this case l2tp_tunnel_find()
would return the new tunnel which wouldn't be protected by the
reference held by l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create().
