[PPPOL2TP]: Fix SMP issues in skb reorder queue handling
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When walking a session's packet reorder queue, use
skb_queue_walk_safe() since the list could be modified inside the
loop.

Rearrange the unlinking skbs from the reorder queue such that it is
done while the queue lock is held in pppol2tp_recv_dequeue() when
walking the skb list.

A version of this patch was suggested by Jarek Poplawski.
