PATCH 1/1 Prevent crashing when parsing bad X.25 facilities

Sorry I didn't catch this at the same time as my previous report so it could be included in one patch.

On parsing malformed X.25 facilities, decrementing the remaining length may cause it to underflow. Since the length is an unsigned integer, this will result in the loop continuing until the kernel crashes.

This patch adds checks to ensure decrementing the remaining length does not cause it to wrap around.

Tested ok, although I noticed the CLASS_D default: message tries to print the facility type, length and 4 values, while it may only have 2 values. Just needs p[4] and p[5] taken out. Do you want me to spin a secondary patch or do you want to put them together?

I can take care of it. Do you want me to just remove those items from the printk statement?

Thanks, yes just remove them from the printk.
