ax25: zero length frame filtering in AX25
In previous commit 244f46ae6e9e18f6fc0be7d1f49febde4762c34b was introduced a zero length frame filter for ROSE protocole. This patch has the same purpose at AX25 frame level for the same reason. Empty frames have no meaning in AX25 protocole. Signed-off-by: Bernard Pidoux <f6bvp@amsat.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
