In commit 8020919a9b99 ("mac80211: Properly handle SKB with radiotap
only"), buffers whose length is too short cause a WARN_ON(1) to be
executed. This change exposed a fault in rtlwifi drivers, which is fixed
by regarding packets with skb->len <= FCS_LEN as though they are in error
and dropping them. The test is now annotated as likely.

V2 - content dropped
V3 - changed fix to drop packet rather than arbitrarily increasing the length.

Material for 5.4.
