Probably you didn't hit the some kind of traffic/problems, because
there was only some additional reporting in this patch vs. take 1.
In the meantime I found some strangeness in refcounting around
ax25_send_frame, and below is a patch which IMHO should fix it. I
don't know if it matters in your case (the previous report suggested
there should be something more), but let's try. Please, don't remove
the previous debugging patch yet, while testing this one.
Thanks,
Jarek P.
