Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 1/7] isdn: Correct comparison of skb->tail and skb-transport_header

This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers
fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In
that case skb->tail will be a pointer whereas skb->transport_header
will be an offset from head. This is corrected by using wrappers that
ensure that the comparison is always between pointers.
