l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and ppp parts 



This patch splits the pppol2tp driver into separate L2TP and PPP parts
to prepare for L2TPv3 support. In L2TPv3, protocols other than PPP can
be carried, so this split creates a common L2TP core that will handle
the common L2TP bits which protocol support modules such as PPP will
use.

Note that the existing pppol2tp module is split into l2tp_core and
l2tp_ppp by this change.

There are no feature changes here. Internally, however, there are
significant changes, mostly to handle the separation of PPP-specific
data from the L2TP session and to provide hooks in the core for
modules like PPP to access.

	  Support for PPP-over-L2TP socket family. L2TP is a protocol

	  tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses.

	  Layer Two Tunneling Protocol



	  From RFC 2661 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2661.txt>.



	  L2TP facilitates the tunneling of packets across an

	  intervening network in a way that is as transparent as

	  possible to both end-users and applications.



	  L2TP is often used to tunnel PPP traffic over IP

	  tunnels. One IP tunnel may carry thousands of individual PPP

	  connections. L2TP is also used as a VPN protocol, popular

	  with home workers to connect to their offices.



	  The kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a

	  userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel

	  and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP

	  (http://openl2tp.org/).



	  If you don't need L2TP, say N. To compile all L2TP code as

	  modules, choose M here.
