Subject: [PATCH] Phonet: fix accounting race between gprs_writeable() and
 gprs_xmit()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

In the unlikely event that gprs_writeable() and gprs_xmit() check for
writeability at the same, we could stop the device queue forever.
