[PATCH 2/2] wan/hdlc_x25: fix skb handling
From: Martin Schiller
Date: Mon Jan 13 2020 - 07:46:08 EST
o call skb_reset_network_header() before hdlc->xmit()
o change skb proto to HDLC (0x0019) before hdlc->xmit()
o call dev_queue_xmit_nit() before hdlc->xmit()
This changes make it possible to trace (tcpdump) outgoing layer2
(ETH_P_HDLC) packets
o use a copy of the skb for lapb_data_request() in x25_xmit()
This fixes the problem, that tracing layer3 (ETH_P_X25) packets
results in a malformed first byte of the packets.
