Jarek,

It looks like you hit the right target !

There is no more warnings and no more ax25_frames_acked or
sk_ax25_debug.

We only get ax25_create and ax25_release data, plus ax25_make_new when 
there is an AX25 connexion.

Please excuse the following questions if you find they are too naive.
Could you tell us how did you suspect ROSE socket from the data 
collected ? and why improperly released ROSE sockets could interfere 
with AX25 ?
