As far as I remember, pppoe-server.c does not do linear table lookups,
but just direct array offset calculations.

I am not a kernel programmer, so it could be that the kernel does
linear lookups for PPPoE sessions, though that would surprise me.

Your point about single-threaded handling of control frames is valid,
though.

David.
