Numerous calls assign a return value without asserting its value. Add
assertions and thus also eliminate compiler warnings about unused values.

The rach request contains a relative frame number (Fn % 42432),
while BTS::rcv_rach() accepts the full frame number only.
Since the BTS is always aware of the full frame number this is
not a problem. But for BSC co-located PCU schemes it is a problem
since the rach request only contains the relative frame number
as mentioned above.
The pcu continusly receives frame number updates with the GSM time
indication message. It is simple to re-calculate the full frame
number from that information.
This patch makes BTS::rcv_rach() compatible with relative frame
numbers, while not breaking the compatibility for full frame
numbers

Fix alignment of EPDAN outside the RLC transmit window,
according to section 9.1.8.2.4 in 44.060 version 7.27.0 Release 7.
The specification explains that a bit within the uncompressed bitmap
whose corresponding BSN is not within the transmit window shall be
ignored. Without this fix PCU was dropping the EPDAN message and not
updating the status of BSNs which are inside the RLC window. This patch
updates the status of the BSNs which are inside the window and ignores
the remaining bits.

Currently the state on the TBF is set to ASSIGN when it is created
and in general changed to FLOW when it is acknowledged by the MS. The
moment when the assignment is really transmitted to the MS (which can
take some time) is not reflected by the state. A TBF can considered
to be valid, when the assignment is received by the MS.
Add the state WAIT_ASSIGN that is entered when the assigment has been
send to the MS (more precisely: when the corresponding RTS has been
processed or the message has been sent to the BTS).
The TBF, its PDCH(s), and its TFI can be assumed to be valid, when the
TBF has a state of WAIT_ASSIGN or higher (assuming that the TBF
starting time has not been set, which is currently only done for SBA,
which are not associated with a TBF).
Note that due to queuing in the BTS there can still be a invalid
time period for immediate assignments, when the request is lingering
in the AGCH or PCH queues.

Currently existing TBF can be reused after an MS has sent a RACH
request. Since the MS can be or most probably is in packet idle mode
in that case, the TBF are no longer usable even if they share the
PDCHs and the control TS with the new one.
There are occasional freezes where the MS does no longer react to
messages sent on the PACCH.
This change aborts all pending TBFs if a new TBF is or has been
established via RACH.

Currently the plain 'egprs' command enables EGPRS but doesn't prevent
phones from being served in GPRS mode if they do not support EGPRS.
This involves complex frame allocation implementations in dynamic
mode, especially if 8PSK is being used. This is due to the inability
of non-EGPRS phone to decode 8PSK USF and ES/P altogether. Since
polling has a higher priority than USF, collisions will have to be
prevented by the PCU by never using an GPRS USF if it refers to a FN
that is already being used for polling.
This commit just disables mixed usage by ignoring GPRS-only request
if EGPRS is enabled.
The following VTY command (config-pcu node) is changed:

Currently an existing DL TBF can get lost in the process of
establishing an UL TBF via RACH. This can lead to stalled connections
until the network sends more LLC frames.
This commit adds a check for a non-empty LLC queue after the UL TBF

path) to eventually establish a new DL TBF on the UL TBF's PACCH.

Currently when a second MS object has been created for an MS, because
the TLLI was not known yet, the will be detected in
gprs_rlcmac_tbf::extract_tlli and the two objects will be merged by
update_ms. But when the dl_tbf is moved from the old to the new
(second) MS object, the old MS object can get idle and be removed
before the object are merged. This can cause LLC frame loss when the
MS object is deleted immediately after getting idle (no timeout
configured).
This commit adds a guard to keep the MS object until extract_tlli has
been executed.

Currently all of these messages are discarded if they are assumend to
be caused by noise. But even in these cases, the FN and TN values
which are added by the DSP are valid. So these can be used to update
the current_frame value.
The osmo-bts sets the fBFILevel of a physical channel to -200dB if it
is used for PDTCH or PACCH which is the case for all PDCH. This way
a data_ind or ra_ind message is already send at least once per block
period (4 frames) per PDCH. These messages are passed to either
handle_ph_data_ind or handle_ph_ra_ind even if they contain garbage
data.
The ra_ind messages are sometimes sent a few frames earlier than
data_ind messages using the same frame.
This commit adds calls to update the current_frame value based on all
of these messages before they are discarded. The FN taken from ra_ind
are passed with an increased max_delay (5) to compensate for early
ra_ind messages.

Currently when calling GprsMs::attach_tbf and a TBF of the same
direction already exists, the old TBF gets detached from the MS
object.
Therefore that TBF object loses access to that MS object including
for instance TLLI and IMSI.
This leads to failing DL TBF reuses, since the downlink assigment
cannot be sent on the PACCH later on because that must be sent on the
old DL TBF which ms() is NULL and the new DL TBF cannot be retrieved.
This commit fixes this bug by changing the GprsMs implementation to
keep a list of replaced (old) TBFs. TBFs are only removed when they
are being detached explicitely (see tbf_free and set_ms).

Currently all active TBF of an MS are killed if a Packet Resource
Request is received from the MS. In general this happens after a RACH
request. This does not happen after a resource request that has been

running for instance to send a TCP Ack. This can happen, if a former
request via PACCH did not work.
