From: Olga Kornievskaia <kolga@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ec6017d9035986a36de064f48a63245930bfad6f upstream. If call_status returns ENOTCONN, we need to re-establish the connection state after. Otherwise the client goes into an infinite loop of call_encode, call_transmit, call_status (ENOTCONN), call_encode.
