[PATCH 3/4] ath5k: explicitly check skb->len

From: Harvey Harrison <hidden>
Date: 2008-07-09 19:44:36
Subsystem: networking drivers (wireless), the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb internally checks that the skb is long
enough to hold the full header, or it returns 0 if not.  The check in
ath5k does not check this case and assumes it always got the actual
header length which it then checks against the skb->len plus some headroom.

Change to ieee80211_hdrlen which always returns the hdrlen and keep the
existing headroom check.
