Subject: [PATCH] llc: dont trust payload size on test cmd

Hi

In testing its not safe to trust the payload length we are given in a
received llc test command header.  Instead we should calculate this 
ourselves or run the risk of an skb_over_panic() if the received length in 
the header is > then the actual payload size.
