    l2tp: take reference on sessions being dumped · 2ba7cfd4

    Take a reference on the sessions returned by l2tp_session_find_nth()
    (and rename it l2tp_session_get_nth() to reflect this change), so that
    caller is assured that the session isn't going to disappear while
    processing it.
    
    For procfs and debugfs handlers, the session is held in the .start()
    callback and dropped in .show(). Given that pppol2tp_seq_session_show()
    dereferences the associated PPPoL2TP socket and that
    l2tp_dfs_seq_session_show() might call pppol2tp_show(), we also need to
    call the session's .ref() callback to prevent the socket from going
    away from under us.
    
    Fixes: fd558d18 ("l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and ppp parts")
    Fixes: 0ad66140 ("l2tp: Add debugfs files for dumping l2tp debug info")
    Fixes: 309795f4 ("l2tp: Add netlink control API for L2TP")
