Hello Jenkins Builder, laforge, pespin, dexter,

to look at the new patch set (#4).

rsl: prevent race condition during timeslot re-configuration

It may happen that the BSC requests logical channel activation on a
dynamic timeslot, which is in a process of switching from one pchan
type to another due to a preceding channel activation request.

In this case 'struct gsm_bts_trx_ts' already holds an msgb with the
preceding RSL CHANnel ACTIVation message, that is normally handled
once the PHY completes the process of timeslot re-configuration.

On receipt of subsequent RSL CHANnel ACTIVation messages, in function
dyn_ts_l1_reconnect() we overwrite the preceeding msgb (memleak), by
the most recent one.  And once the timeslot re-configuration is done,
only the most recent CHANnel ACTIVation message gets ACKed.

In order to avoid this, let's move the msgb ownership to 'struct
gsm_lchan', so it cannot be overwritten by the CHANnel ACTIVation
message that is related to a different lchan on the same timeslot.
