[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: Check skb size before using encapsulated ETH+VLAN header

Sven Eckelmann

The encapsulated ethernet and VLAN header may be outside the received
ethernet frame. Thus the skb buffer size has to be checked before it can be
parsed to find out if it encapsulates another batman-adv packet.
