The existing pppol2tp driver exports debug info to
/proc/net/pppol2tp. Rather than adding info to that file for the new
functionality added in this patch series, we add new files in debugfs,
leaving the old /proc file for backwards compatibility (L2TPv2 only).
Currently only one file is provided: l2tp/tunnels, which lists
internal debug info for all l2tp tunnels and sessions. More files may
be added later. The info is for debug and problem analysis only -
userspace apps should use netlink to obtain status about l2tp tunnels
and sessions.
Although debugfs does not support net namespaces, the tunnels and
sessions dumped in l2tp/tunnels are only those in the net namespace of
the process reading the file.

This driver presents a regular net_device for each L2TP ethernet
pseudowire instance. These interfaces are named l2tpethN by default,
though userspace can specify an alternative name when the L2TP
session is created, if preferred. When the pseudowire is established,
regular Linux networking utilities may be used to configure the
interface, i.e. give it IP address info or add it to a bridge. Any
data passed over the interface is carried over an L2TP tunnel.
