Guillaume Nault a408194aa0 l2tp: define helper for parsing struct sockaddr_pppol2tp*
'sockaddr_len' is checked against various values when entering
pppol2tp_connect(), to verify its validity. It is used again later, to
find out which sockaddr structure was passed from user space. This
patch combines these two operations into one new function in order to
simplify pppol2tp_connect().

A new structure, l2tp_connect_info, is used to pass sockaddr data back
to pppol2tp_connect(), to avoid passing too many parameters to
l2tp_sockaddr_get_info(). Also, the first parameter is void* in order
to avoid casting between all sockaddr_* structures manually.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
