3.2.95-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9aaef50c44f132e040dcd7686c8e78a3390037c5 upstream. Make l2tp_pernet()'s parameter constant, so that l2tp_session_get*() can declare their "net" variable as "const". Also constify "ifname" in l2tp_session_get_by_ifname().
