Subject: [PATCH 06/22] l2tp: remove useless duplicate session detection in l2tp_netlink
Date: Thu, 21 May 2020 15:40:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200521144100.128936-7-gprocida@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200521144100.128936-1-gprocida@google.com>

From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr>

commit af87ae465abdc070de0dc35d6c6a9e7a8cd82987 uptream.

There's no point in checking for duplicate sessions at the beginning of
l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create(); the ->session_create() callbacks already
return -EEXIST when the session already exists.

Furthermore, even if l2tp_session_find() returns NULL, a new session
might be created right after the test. So relying on ->session_create()
to avoid duplicate session is the only sane behaviour.
