Christian Marangi 8c1bd9b6a5 ppp: backport patches improving ppp interface creation
Backport patches improving ppp interface creation. As a side effect this
also fix a bug from using netdev trigger that suffer from LED state
wrongly set due to using old ioctl for ppp creation.

Subject: [PATCH] pppd: Retry registering interface when on rtnetlink -EBUSY
error
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Due to workaround in kernel module ppp_generic.ko in function
ppp_nl_newlink(), kernel may return -EBUSY error to prevent possible
mutex deadlock. In this case userspace needs to retry its request.
Proper way would be to fix kernel module to order requests and mutex
locking, so prevent deadlock in kernel and so never return this error to
userspace. Until it happens we need retry code in userspace.
