Using the mint() function of L2LivepeerToken, an address with MINTER_ROLE can burn an arbitrary amount of tokens.
If the private key of the deployer or an address with the MINTER_ROLE is compromised, the attacker will be able to mint an unlimited amount of LPT tokens.
We believe this is unnecessary and poses a serious centralization risk.
Consider removing the MINTER_ROLE, make the L2LivepeerToken only mintable by the owner, and make the L2Minter contract to be the owner and therefore the only minter.
