connecting to a device and doing a full yang-ext:mount that device drops the session.

in previous revisions of ODL (e.g. one from July 29th) ODL re-establishes the session.

the latest builds fail to do this.

The only difference I can see in the logs is this:

old ODL:

2014-08-26 12:35:51.367 BST [nettyThreadgroupModule$NioEventLoopGroupCloseable-5-2] DEBUG o.o.c.n.n.h.NetconfChunkAggregator - Buffer has 146 bytes, need 793 to complete chunk

: Session went down
java.io.IOException: End of input detected. Close the session.

new ODL:

is the "o.o.c.n.n.h.FramingMechanismHandlerFactory - EOM framing mechanism was selected." message meaningful? It's missing in the "new" ODL case.
