From: Krzysztof Mazur <redacted>

Patches "atm: detach protocol before closing vcc"
and "pppoatm: allow assign only on a connected socket" fixed
common cases where the pppoatm_send() crashes while sending
frame to not-ready vcc. However there are still some other cases
where we can send frames to vcc, which is flagged as ATM_VF_CLOSE
(for instance after vcc_release_async()) or it's opened but not
ready yet.

Now pppoatm_send(), like vcc_sendmsg(), checks for vcc flags that
indicate that vcc is not ready. If the vcc is not ready we just
drop frame. Queueing frames is much more complicated because we
don't have callbacks that inform us about vcc flags changes.
