    [PATCH] Fix 6pack setting of MAC address
    
    Don't check type of sax25_family; dev_set_mac_address has already done
    that before and anyway, the type to check against would have been
    ARPHRD_AX25.  We only got away because AF_AX25 and ARPHRD_AX25 both happen
    to be defined to the same value.
    
    Don't check sax25_ndigis either; it's value is insignificant for the
    purpose of setting the MAC address and the check has shown to break
    some application software for no good reason.

    [PATCH] 6pack Timer initialization
    
    I dropped the timer initialization bits by accident when sending the
    p-persistence fix.  This patch gets the driver to work again on halfduplex
    links.
