Subject: [PATCH v2 net] hdlc_ppp: add range checks in ppp_cp_parse_cr()

There are a couple bugs here:
1) If opt[1] is zero then this results in a forever loop.  If the value
   is less than 2 then it is invalid.
2) It assumes that "len" is more than sizeof(valid_accm) or 6 which can
   result in memory corruption.

In the case of LCP_OPTION_ACCM, then  we should check "opt[1]" instead
of "len" because, if "opt[1]" is less than sizeof(valid_accm) then
"nak_len" gets out of sync and it can lead to memory corruption in the
next iterations through the loop.  In case of LCP_OPTION_MAGIC, the
only valid value for opt[1] is 6, but the code is trying to log invalid
data so we should only discard the data when "len" is less than 6
because that leads to a read overflow.

v2: check opt[1] < 6 instead of len < 6 for the LCP_OPTION_ACCM case.
