pppoatm: take ATM socket lock in pppoatm_send()
The pppoatm_send() does not take any lock that will prevent concurrent vcc_sendmsg(). This causes two problems: - there is no locking between checking the send queue size with atm_may_send() and incrementing sk_wmem_alloc, and the real queue size can be a little higher than sk_sndbuf - the vcc->sendmsg() can be called concurrently. I'm not sure if it's allowed. Some drivers (eni, nicstar, ...) seem to assume it will never happen. Now pppoatm_send() takes ATM socket lock, the same that is used in vcc_sendmsg() and other ATM socket functions. The pppoatm_send() is called with BH disabled, so bh_lock_sock() is used instead of lock_sock().
