[PATCH 1/1] net/x25: fix address parsing bug in x25_parse_address_block.

[Stephen Moorby <steve.moorby@ntlworld.com>]

This problem was discovered when a linux box was incorrectly rejecting
calls from some X.25 equipment.  The problem was diagnosed to an incorrect
address length calculation in 'x25_parse_address_block', the calculation
did not account for the address digits being BCD encoded.  The correct
calculation is already performed on line 155.

Patched on linux-next 18-Jun-2013
Tested on 2.6.32-45-generic
