[c-nsp] C7301 dropping OSPF

At the risk of over simplifying the issue - I'd suggest you increase your
input queue on both devices to at least 1000. Looks like the 75 packet queue
is not enough for the pps load on the device and other process switched
packets may be causing your OSPF messages to be tail dropped during periods
of high load causing your adjacencies to reset.

Increase the input queue on both devices, clear counters and monitor for
input queue drops. The overruns on the interface may also indicate the
hardware was under serious load at one point. Again - reset the counters and
monitor so you have a reference point so you can try and determine the root
cause.
