[ Upstream commit c4d48a58f32c5972174a1d01c33b296fe378cce0 ] l2tp uses l2tp_tunnel_list to track all registered tunnels and to allocate tunnel ID's. IDR can do the same job. More importantly, with IDR we can hold the ID before a successful registration so that we don't need to worry about late error handling, it is not easy to rollback socket changes. This is a preparation for the following fix.

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. 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.
