net: ppp: reset nextseq counter when enabling SC_MULTILINK
If using a demand-dialled PPP unit for a PPP multilink master, the pppd daemon needs to reset the sequence counter between two connections. This allows the daemon to reuse the PPP unit instead of destroying and recreating it. As there is no API to reset the counter, this patch resets the counter whenever the SC_MULTILINK flag is set.
