From: Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9b6ff7eb666415e1558f1ba8a742f5db6a9954de upstream. The reference count leak issue may take place in an error handling path. If both conditions of tunnel->version == L2TP_HDR_VER_3 and the return value of l2tp_v3_ensure_opt_in_linear is nonzero, the function would directly jump to label invalid, without decrementing the reference count of the l2tp_session object session increased earlier by l2tp_tunnel_get_session(). This may result in refcount leaks. Fix this issue by decrease the reference count before jumping to the label invalid.
