[PATCH 5.17 207/225] tty: n_gsm: fix malformed counter for out of frame data

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed May 04 2022 - 13:47:07 EST


From: Daniel Starke <daniel.starke@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a24b4b2f660b7ddf3f484b37600bba382cb28a9d upstream.

The gsm_mux field 'malformed' represents the number of malformed frames
received. However, gsm1_receive() also increases this counter for any out
of frame byte.
Fix this by ignoring out of frame data for the malformed counter.
