commit 7246210ecdd0cda97fa3e3bb15c32c6c2d9a23b5 upstream.
When the server interface for a channel is not active anymore, we have the logic to select an alternative interface. However this was not breaking out of the loop as soon as a new alternative was found. As a result, some interfaces may get refcounted unintentionally.
There was also a bug in checking if we found an alternate iface. Fixed that too.
