Commit 0e0c3fee3a59 ("l2tp: hold reference on tunnels printed in pppol2tp proc file")
assumed that if pppol2tp_seq_stop() was called with non-NULL private
data (the 'v' pointer), then pppol2tp_seq_start() would not be called
again. It turns out that this isn't guaranteed, and overflowing the
seq_file's buffer in pppol2tp_seq_show() is a way to get into this
situation.
Therefore, pppol2tp_seq_stop() needs to reset pd->tunnel, so that
pppol2tp_seq_start() won't drop a reference again if it gets called.
We also have to clear pd->session, because the rest of the code expects
a non-NULL tunnel when pd->session is set.
The l2tp_debugfs module has the same issue. Fix it in the same way.

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.
