I had them in OLSRv2 too... in my case it was the case that the buffer
for receiving netlink messages from the kernel became full, I had too
many netlink message "in flight".

I solved it by having a rate limitation, sending a block of netlink
messages, then waiting for the ACKs before sending the next.
