When the server interface for a channel is not active anymore,
we have the logic to select an alternative interface. However
this was not breaking out of the loop as soon as a new alternative
was found. As a result, some interfaces may get refcounted unintentionally.
There was also a bug in checking if we found an alternate iface.
Fixed that too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
