Cover letter [PATCH net-next 0/2] ppp: Remove PPPOX_ZOMBIE socket state

Several issues have been found lately wrt. the PPPOX_ZOMBIE socket state. This state is now only set upon reception of a PADT to stop further transmissions. However this is redundant with the PADT workqueue mechanism introduced by 287f3a943fef ("pppoe: Use workqueue to die properly when a PADT is received").

We can thus simplify pppox socket state handling by getting rid of PPPOX_ZOMBIE entirely.
