H A Dpppoatm.cdiff 3ac108006fd7f20cb8fc8ea2287f1497bcda00a1 Tue Nov 06 16:17:00 CST 2012 Krzysztof Mazur <krzysiek@podlesie.net> pppoatm: take ATM socket lock in pppoatm_send()

The pppoatm_send() does not take any lock that will prevent concurrent
vcc_sendmsg(). This causes two problems:

- there is no locking between checking the send queue size
with atm_may_send() and incrementing sk_wmem_alloc,
and the real queue size can be a little higher than sk_sndbuf

- the vcc->sendmsg() can be called concurrently. I'm not sure
if it's allowed. Some drivers (eni, nicstar, ...) seem
to assume it will never happen.

Now pppoatm_send() takes ATM socket lock, the same that is used
in vcc_sendmsg() and other ATM socket functions. The pppoatm_send()
is called with BH disabled, so bh_lock_sock() is used instead
of lock_sock().
