l2tp uses l2tp_tunnel_list to track all registered tunnels and
to allocate tunnel ID's. IDR can do the same job.

More importantly, with IDR we can hold the ID before a successful
registration so that we don't need to worry about late error
handling, it is not easy to rollback socket changes.

This is a preparation for the following fix.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
