   Bump to the current version of PPP.

   A few of the patches are either in 2.4.5 or something functionally 
equivalent is, so those patches were removed.

   1 patch was added to accommodate pppol2pv3_addr which is referenced in a 
linux kernel header file, but isn't defined in the kernel header files packaged 
with PPP.

  Can I please get a code review of this?
  Here's a few things spotted during review:

  - You forgot to refresh the patches, there's lots of fuzz/offsets when
  applying them
  - The change that removes the exponential backoff during pppoe discovery
  was dropped, please add it back
 Looking through the code, the patch was failing to comment that snippet out 
because it's no longer present.
 I checked. The 'timeout *= 2' part is still there.

  - Did you test whether pppd still properly survives errors during pppoe
  initialization (e.g. when receiving broken data from the AC)?

 I only have access to PPPoA and Bridged DSL functionality. I put out a request 
for people to test the patch but didn't get any responses.
 You could put in a test change that simulates an occasional connection
 failure. I think this should be tested because an old patch that was
 removed touched parts of that and I want to make sure that the update
 does not cause a regression there.

Can you point it out to me?  It must have been buried in a mix with something 
else...
I was talking about 350-survive_bad_pads_packets.patch. I believe dropping the patch was the right thing to do, but I still want to make sure that we don't introduce any regressions here.
