From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 29e73269aa4d36f92b35610c25f8b01c789b0dc8 ]

Drop reference on the relay_po socket when __pppoe_xmit() succeeds.
This is already handled correctly in the error path.
