+Subject: [PATCH] pppoe: Use workqueue to die properly when a PADT is received
+
+When a PADT frame is received, the socket may not be in a good state to
+close down the PPP interface. The current implementation handles this by
+simply blocking all further PPP traffic, and hoping that the lack of traffic
+will trigger the user to investigate.
+
+Use schedule_work to get to a process context from which we clear down the
+PPP interface, in a fashion analogous to hangup on a TTY-based PPP
+interface. This causes pppd to disconnect immediately, and allows tools to
+take immediate corrective action.
+
+Note that pppd's rp_pppoe.so plugin has code in it to disable the session
+when it disconnects; however, as a consequence of this patch, the session is
+already disabled before rp_pppoe.so is asked to disable the session. The
+result is a harmless error message:
+
+Failed to disconnect PPPoE socket: 114 Operation already in progress
+
+This message is safe to ignore, as long as the error is 114 Operation
+already in progress; in that specific case, it means that the PPPoE session
+has already been disabled before pppd tried to disable it.
