[patch 20/28] PPP: Fix PPP buffer sizing.

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Konstantin Sharlaimov <konstantin.sharlaimov@gmail.com>

This patch addresses the issue with "osize too small" errors in mppe
encryption.  The patch fixes the issue with wrong output buffer size
being passed to ppp decompression routine.

--------------------
As pointed out by Suresh Mahalingam, the issue addressed by
ppp-fix-osize-too-small-errors-when-decoding patch is not fully resolved yet.
The size of allocated output buffer is correct, however it size passed to
ppp->rcomp->decompress in ppp_generic.c if wrong. The patch fixes that.
