As the n_gsm is full of known issues by the developers, and the ldisc is
not allowed to be loaded by a non-root user, this isn't all that serious
of an issue.  See this thread for a list of problems that I think you
might have already found here:

Note, 2 fixes have landed in 6.10-rc2 for this driver, can you verify if
these fix the issue you are reporting here?

And do you have a proposed fix for this issue?

thanks,
