The bpq ether driver is modifying the data art of the skb by first dropping the KISS byte (a command byte for the radio) then prepending the length + 4 of the remaining AX.25 packet to be transmitted as a little endian 16-bit number. If the high byte of the length has a different value than the dropped KISS byte users of clones of the skb may observe this as corruption. This was observed with by running listen(8) -a which uses a packet socket which clones transmit packets. The corruption will then typically be displayed for as a KISS "TX Delay" command for AX.25 packets in the range of 252..508 bytes or any other KISS command for yet larger packets. Fixed by using skb_cow to create a private copy should the skb be cloned. Using skb_cow also allows us to cleanup the old logic to ensure sufficient headroom in the skb. While at it, replace a return of 0 from bpq_xmit with the proper constant NETDEV_TX_OK which is now being used everywhere else in this function. Affected: all 2.2, 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.
