Received frame from QMC contains the CRC.
Upper layers don't need this CRC and tcpdump mentioned trailing junk
data due to this CRC presence.

As some other HDLC driver, simply discard this CRC.

It might be nice to specifically site an example.
But yes, I see this pattern in hdlc_rx_done().

Pretty much the only reason you'd want the received CRC is to do
error recovery assuming a single short error burst.
Not that I've ever seen a driver contain the required code.
'Back of envelope' calculation: 32bit crc, 2kbyte frame, so 18bits
of crc per data bit, sqrt for 'birthday paradox' - I bet you can
recover 8-bit error bursts.
