[Impact]
While debugging bug 1880631, I found that this l2tp.sh test from
kselftest/net will cause the dmesg output on Focal OEM 5.6 kernel
flooded with:
"unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1"
for about every 10 seconds.

[Fix]
* 27d53323664c54 ("l2tp: remove skb_dst_set() from l2tp_xmit_skb()")
We have this patch in all of our generic kernels and OEM-5.10, thus
for now I can see just OEM-5.6 is affected. For which this patch can
be cherry-picked.
[Test Case]
This can tested with the l2tp.sh script in the kernel tree:
# sh ./tools/testing/selftests/net/l2tp.sh
With the patched kernel, it won't get flooded with that
unregister_netdevice message anymore.
Also, I have it tested with ubuntu_stress_smoke_tests as well, to
ensure the sctp stressor won't trigger any issue like in bug 1854968.
A test kernel can be found here:
https://people.canonical.com/~phlin/kernel/lp-1919277-l2tp/
[Where problems could occur]
This change is testable. A quick search didn't show any know issue
regarding this patch. And with the same fix running in different
generic kernel for a while I think the regression potential can be
considered as low.
