ppp: avoid dealock on recursive xmit

In case of misconfiguration, a virtual PPP channel might send packets
back to their parent PPP interface. This typically happens in
misconfigured L2TP setups, where PPP's peer IP address is set with the
IP of the L2TP peer.
When that happens the system hangs due to PPP trying to recursively
lock its xmit path.

The main entry points for sending packets over a PPP unit are the
.write() and .ndo_start_xmit() callbacks (simplified view):

.write(unit fd) or .ndo_start_xmit()
       \
        CALL ppp_xmit_process()
               \
                LOCK unit's xmit path (ppp->wlock)
                |
                CALL ppp_push()
                       \
                        LOCK channel's xmit path (chan->downl)
                        |
                        CALL lower layer's .start_xmit() callback
                               \
                                ... might recursively call .ndo_start_xmit() ...
                               /
                        RETURN from .start_xmit()
                        |
                        UNLOCK channel's xmit path
                       /
                RETURN from ppp_push()
                |
                UNLOCK unit's xmit path
               /
        RETURN from ppp_xmit_process()

Packets can also be directly sent on channels (e.g. LCP packets):

.write(channel fd) or ppp_output_wakeup()
       \
        CALL ppp_channel_push()
               \
                LOCK channel's xmit path (chan->downl)
                |
                CALL lower layer's .start_xmit() callback
                       \
                        ... might call .ndo_start_xmit() ...
                       /
                RETURN from .start_xmit()
                |
                UNLOCK channel's xmit path
               /
        RETURN from ppp_channel_push()

Key points about the lower layer's .start_xmit() callback:

  * It can be called directly by a channel fd .write() or by
    ppp_output_wakeup() or indirectly by a unit fd .write() or by
    .ndo_start_xmit().

  * In any case, it's always called with chan->downl held.

  * It might route the packet back to its parent unit using
    .ndo_start_xmit() as entry point.

This patch detects and breaks recursion in ppp_xmit_process(). This
function is a good candidate for the task because it's called early
enough after .ndo_start_xmit(), it's always part of the recursion
loop and it's on the path of whatever entry point is used to send
a packet on a PPP unit.

Recursion detection is done using the per-cpu ppp_xmit_recursion
variable.

Since ppp_channel_push() too locks the channel's xmit path and calls
the lower layer's .start_xmit() callback, we need to also increment
ppp_xmit_recursion there. However there's no need to check for
recursion, as it's out of the recursion loop.
