It's not really the job of the local channel to decide what's 
appropriate for the "real" channel it is representing to do with the 
ringing indication. By queuing the ringing frame to the other local 
channel (the "owner") on the local_pvt, this gives another application a 
chance to read the frame and use the real channel driver's indicate 
callback to decide what to do.
