1. Added a skb->len check
This driver expects upper layers to include a pseudo header of 1 byte
when passing down a skb for transmission. This driver will read this
1-byte header. This patch added a skb->len check before reading the
header to make sure the header exists.
2. Added needed_headroom and set hard_header_len to 0
When this driver transmits data,
first this driver will remove a pseudo header of 1 byte,
then the lapb module will prepend the LAPB header of 2 or 3 bytes.
So the value of needed_headroom in this driver should be 3 - 1.
Because this driver has no header_ops, according to the logic of
af_packet.c, the value of hard_header_len should be 0.
Reason of setting needed_headroom and hard_header_len at this place:
This driver is written using the API of the hdlc module, the hdlc
module enables this driver (the protocol driver) to run on any hardware
that has a driver (the hardware driver) written using the API of the
hdlc module.
Two other hdlc protocol drivers - hdlc_ppp and hdlc_raw_eth, also set
things like hard_header_len at this place. In hdlc_ppp, it sets
hard_header_len after attach_hdlc_protocol and before setting dev->type.
In hdlc_raw_eth, it sets hard_header_len by calling ether_setup after
attach_hdlc_protocol and after memcpy the settings.
3. Reset needed_headroom when detaching protocols (in hdlc.c)
When detaching a protocol from a hardware device, the hdlc module will
reset various parameters of the device (including hard_header_len) to
the default values. We add needed_headroom here so that needed_headroom
will also be reset.
