Subject: [PATCH] slip: Check if rstate is initialized before uncompressing

On receiving a packet the state index points to the rstate which must be
used to fill up IP and TCP headers. But if the state index points to a
rstate which is unitialized, i.e. filled with zeros, it gets stuck in an
infinite loop inside ip_fast_csum trying to compute the ip checsum of a
header with zero length.

./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux slhc_uncompress+0x464/0x468 output:
 ip_fast_csum at arch/arm64/include/asm/checksum.h:40
 (inlined by) slhc_uncompress at drivers/net/slip/slhc.c:615

Adding a variable to indicate if the current rstate is initialized. If
such a packet arrives, move to toss state.
