Public bug reported:

I'm not completely sure how to summarise this bug, but it's obviously
potentially fatal and related to the kernel components of either xl2tpd,
pppd or IPv6.

I have an IPv6 connection using xl2tpd to make a ppp connection and then
route IPv6 over that... this works fine, but if I stress it using heavy
traffic such as bittorrent, the entire system will lock up at the kernel
level after a time, between 10 minutes and 1 hour approximately.

This is using Trusty with the 3.12 kernel as of 17/Nov 2013...   I'm
really not sure how to go about debugging this, the only clue I can find
is this:-

control packet on tunnel 35506 (got 4, expected 5)

Nov 16 23:32:21 trinity xl2tpd[2849]: Terminating pppd: sending TERM signal to 
pid 7386

The connection is then re-established..
