When Protocol Field Compression (PFC) is enabled, the "Protocol" field
in PPP packet will be received without leading 0x00. See section 6.5 in
RFC 1661 for details. So let's decompress protocol field if needed, the
same way it's done in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c.
In case when "nopcomp" pppd option is not enabled, PFC (pcomp) can be
negotiated during LCP handshake, and L2TP driver in kernel will receive
PPP packets with compressed Protocol field, which in turn leads to next
error:
Protocol Rejected (unsupported protocol 0x2145)
because instead of Protocol=0x0021 in PPP packet there will be
Protocol=0x21. This patch unwraps it back to 0x0021, which fixes the
issue.
Sending the compressed Protocol field will be implemented in subsequent
patch, this one is self-sufficient.

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.
