Subject: [PATCH v2 02/10] net/l2tp: Add missing sa_family validation in pppol2tp_sockaddr_get_info

From: Kees Cook <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 14 Oct 2025 15:43:24 -0700

While reviewing the struct proto_ops connect() and bind() callback
implementations, I noticed that there doesn't appear to be any
validation that AF_PPPOX sockaddr structures actually have sa_family set
to AF_PPPOX. The pppol2tp_sockaddr_get_info() checks only look at the
sizes.

I don't see any way that this might actually cause problems as specific
info fields are being populated, for which the existing size checks are
correct, but it stood out as a missing address family check.

Add the check and return -EAFNOSUPPORT on mismatch.
