SRU Justification
=================
[Impact]
When a user dump pdp contextes, it cannot associate them with existing
gtp interfaces. Thus, the dump is unusable.
This problem has been fixed in the upstream commit b274e47d9e3f ("gtp:
add GTPA_LINK info to msg sent to userspace"):
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=b274e47d9e3f
[Test Case]
Create several gtp interfaces and setup PDP contextes on them. Perform a
dump with the genl command GTP_CMD_GETPDP.
[Regression Potential]
The patch affects only the gtp driver and is quite trivial. Thus, the
potential regressions are limited to this area and low.
[Miscellaneous]
This fix is queued for all the stable trees so we'll get this fix sooner
or later; but because it's a one liner fix, we might as well SRU to get
this sooner.
