You're right that both need to be fixed.

No, this isn't right.  You've removed the + 1 and you've introduced an
additional "sbk->len - 1" so we're off by two...  The test is supposed
to be:

	start + length_read > start + length_of_buffer

So the end has to be &skb->data[skb->len].  The "+ 1" comes from later
in the function when we do:

		ptr += sizeof(*ev) + ev->length + 1;
                                               ^^^^

I don't where the "+ 1" comes from, but I know the condition and the
increment should match.  We could use ev->data instead of
"ptr + sizeof(*ev)" but to me, because the mysterious "+ 1" then it
seems more readable to match the increment exactly...
