#1102: mesh routing/forwarding seizes after a few hours

 I have noticed this behavior on a couple of nodes in my 17-node testbed
 with firmware-version: 5.220.9.p254
 After a few (8+) hours, forwarding seems to become inoperable.

 mshy16 can't ping any other node in the testbed. Reseting the fwt table
 doesn't bring it back.

 Its radio seems to be in the correct mode:

 }}}


 fwt_list shows (although I am probably not querying correctly with the
 current driver):
