If you look at procedure 6.1 "Assignment to network connection" you will
find that only the owner "initiator" of a network connection should
release it. So when you have sent the DR-TPDU, the transport connection
from your point of view is closed. The NDISind arrives it affects a network
connection which is no longer used, so no action should be taken.
