rose_loopback_timer sets VC number <= ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC

cat /proc/net/rose displayed a rose sockets abnormal lci value, i.e.
greater than maximum number of VCs per neighbour allowed.
This number prevents further test of lci value during rose operations.

Example (lines shortened) :
[bernard]# cat /proc/net/rose
dest_addr  dest_call src_addr   src_call  dev   lci neigh st vs vr va
*          *         2080175520 F6BVP-1   rose0 000 00000  0  0  0  0
2080175520 FPAD-0    2080175520 WP-0      rose0 FFE 00001  3  0  0  0

Here are the default parameters :

linux/include/net/rose.h:#define ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC 50 /* Maximum number of VCs per neighbour */
linux/net/rose/af_rose.c:int sysctl_rose_maximum_vcs = ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC;

With the following patch, rose_loopback_timer() attributes a VC number
within limits.
