A wrong adaption is nothing we can detect with sufficient accuracy as this
changes the structure of the UI/UIH frames. E.g. a one byte header is added
in case of convergence layer type 2 instead of 1 and contains the modem
signal octet with the state of the signal lines. There is no checksum or
other value which indicates of this field is correct or should be present.
Therefore, we can only assume protocol correctness here.
See also function 'gsm_dlci_data' where this is handled.
