Subject: [PATCH 8/8] tty: n_gsm: Enable reception of frames separated with a single SOF marker

Frames may be separated with a single SOF (5.2.6.1 of 27.010 mux spec).
While transmission of a single SOF between frames is implemented in
gsm_data_kick, the reception isn't.

As a side effect, it is now possible to receive and ignore a stream of
consecutive SOFs (5.2.5 of 27.010 mux spec).
