This helps with the situation where asterisk and the other end of the link 
disagrees on whether a given channel is in use or not. Asterisk will send 
a reset once every hour for every channel it considers not in use. 

We apparently have the only piece of equipment where this causes a 
problem. The E1 pri card in a Panasonic KD-TD1232 resets _all_ channels 
whenever a single B channel is reset. Until we removed the reset all calls 
were dropped every hour. 

When I have more time I plan to make a patch to selectivly only reset the 
B channels when all the B channels on a span are idle.
