Subject: net: l2tp: unlock socket lock before returning from l2tp_ip_sendmsg


From: Sasha Levin <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 84768edbb2721637620b2d84501bb0d5aed603f1 ]

l2tp_ip_sendmsg could return without releasing socket lock, making it all the
way to userspace, and generating the following warning:

[  130.891594] ================================================
[  130.894569] [ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]
[  130.897257] 3.4.0-rc5-next-20120501-sasha #104 Tainted: G        W

l2tp_ip_sendmsg+0x2f/0x550
