Looks further buggy, so perhaps this untested patch would work, i.e.
move the accepting-plinks change closer to the decrement, and push
the user_mpm check down into mesh_plink_deactivate to just
avoid sending the peering frames.  [There's also a bit there for
power saving that we likely want to keep for secure networks.]

Then again maybe accepting_plinks flag should just be computed when
used instead of tracking the state separately.
