    The ioctl call is passing a "struct ax25_ctl_struct" to the kernel. That
    structure has the fields digi_count and digi_addr (see netax25/axlib.h)
    that should probably be filled in. The argument parsing should be
    modified to accept a digi path in addition to to dest call (maybe use
    ax25_aton() to fill in a temporary "struct full_sockaddr_ax25" and copy
    the digi stuff from there to the ax25_ctl_struct).
