This seems to be a regression caused by moving the Layer2 link
handling
into the lapb driver, which wasn't intended in my original patchset.
I also have another patch on my todo list which aims orphan packet
handling in the x25_receive_data() function. Maybe it is better to
catch
the whole thing there.
OK..
Currently it's not clear to me what your future patches would be.
Maybe we can first have this patch applied? Because based on the
current code I think this patch is necessary. When you are ready to
submit your patches, you can replace my code and we can discuss
further.
Yes, that's also the reason why I already acked this patch. We can
solve this later a little bit cleaner if necessary.
My patch that takes care of the orphaned packets in x25_receive_data()
has again a dependency on other patches, especially the patch to
configure the neighbor parameters (DCE/DTE, number of channels etc.),
which I already sent before but still have to revise.
Unfortunately I have only limited time for this topic, so I am not as
fast as some people would wish. Sorry for that.
