rose_loopback_timer sets VC number <= ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC
cat /proc/net/rose displayed a rose sockets abnormal lci value, i.e.
greater than maximum number of VCs per neighbour allowed.
This number prevents further test of lci value during rose operations.
Example (lines shortened) :
[bernard]# cat /proc/net/rose
dest_addr dest_call src_addr src_call dev lci neigh st vs vr va

2080175520 WP-0 rose0 FFE 00001 3 0 0 0
Here are the default parameters :
linux/include/net/rose.h:#define ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC 50 /* Maximum number of VCs per neighbour */
linux/net/rose/af_rose.c:int sysctl_rose_maximum_vcs = ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC;
With the following patch, rose_loopback_timer() attributes a VC number
within limits.
