[PATCH v2 3/3] pppoatm: protect against freeing of vcc

From: Krzysztof Mazur <hidden>
Date: 2012-10-22 17:24:20
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: atm, networking [general], ppp over atm (rfc 2364), the rest · Maintainers: Chas Williams, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Mitchell Blank Jr, Linus Torvalds

The pppoatm gets a reference to atmvcc, but does not increment vcc
usage count. The vcc uses vcc->sk socket for reference counting,
so sock_hold() and sock_put() should be used by pppoatm.
