l2tp: Fix error creating L2TP tunnels
[ Upstream commit 853effc55b0f975abd6d318cca486a9c1b67e10f ] A previous commit (33f72e6) added notification via netlink for tunnels when created/modified/deleted. If the notification returned an error, this error was returned from the tunnel function. If there were no listeners, the error code ESRCH was returned, even though having no listeners is not an error. Other calls to this and other similar notification functions either ignore the error code, or filter ESRCH. This patch checks for ESRCH and does not flag this as an error.
