[nsp] AS5300 loosing memory

[Jason Houx]

Just to add to this - We too { AS7106 } started seeing the same issue
today and had been blocking the previous problems at the core.  Our 
AS5248's and AS5300 had been having the problem all day.  We just updated 
our core for the Nachi Worm and this looks to have slowed down the pace. 
We do have a TAC case open on this.  It will be interesting to see what 
they have to say ;-)  -  Anyone interested in me updating the list with 
TAC findings?
