hdr_len is repeatedly used so keep it in a local variable.

I forgot earlier: this can also use single line statement

     copylen = max(copylen, ETH_HLEN);

And perhaps easiest to follow is

     copylen = hdr_len ?: GOODCOPY_LEN;
     copylen = min(copylen, good_linear);
     copylen = max(copylen, ETH_HLEN);
I introduced the min() usage as it now neatly fits in a line, but I 
found even clamp() fits so I'll use it in the next version:
copylen = clamp(hdr_len ?: GOODCOPY_LEN, ETH_HLEN, good_linear);

Please tell me if you prefer hdr_len ?: GOODCOPY_LEN in a separate line:
copylen = hdr_len ?: GOODCOPY_LEN;
copylen = clamp(copylen, ETH_HLEN, good_linear);
Oh nice. I had forgotten about clamp. Even better.
