#1621763 — [PATCH net-next v1 1/1] L2TP device MTU setup - tunnel socket needs a lock

The MTU overhead calculation in L2TP device set-up
merged via commit b784e7ebfce8cfb16c6f95e14e8532d0768ab7ff
needs to be adjusted to lock the tunnel socket while
referencing the sub-data structures to derive the
socket's IP overhead.

Thanks.

Tested-by: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr>

BTW, you don't need to add "v1" for the first version of a patch.
There's also no need for numbering pathes when there's only one in the
series. And we normally prefix the commit message with "<subsystem>: ".
For this patch, your subject would look like " [PATCH net-next] l2tp: ...".

Also, you could have added a "Reported-by:" tag (I don't really mind
in this case, but that's good practice).

Hi Guillaume,

Thanks for correcting these (and for testing the changes) and sorry
for the Reported-by omission. I'll respin by tonight
with these, per reply to Dave.

This is missing a proper signoff.

The subject line also needs to be fixed "[PATCH net-next] l2tp: " as explained
by Guillaume.

Thanks.
