ax25: add link layer header validation function
[ Upstream commit ea47781c26510e5d97f80f9aceafe9065bd5e3aa ] As variable length protocol, AX25 fails link layer header validation tests based on a minimum length. header_ops.validate allows protocols to validate headers that are shorter than hard_header_len. Implement this callback for AX25. See also http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/401064 Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
