    ax25: Quick fix for making sure unaccepted sockets get destroyed.
    
    Since we reverted 30902dc3cb0ea1cfc7ac2b17bcf478ff98420d74 ("ax25: Fix
    std timer socket destroy handling.") we have to put some kind of fix
    in to cure the issue whereby unaccepted connections do not get destroyed.
    
    The approach used here is from Tihomir Heidelberg - 9a4gl
