LAPB doesn't check for write_queue length in lapb_data_request(). So in some conditions it may grow unlimited. There is a potential problem for small systems. It seems like this for me:
It doesn't enforce limits on any of it's queued from what I can tell. Without a thorough audit of resource limit enforcement in this protocol stack, changing things here might be more trouble than it's worth.
