afaict: ev->data = start and length_read = ev->length
and the right side of the condition is the upper limit. "end" as defined
in my patch is the last readable byte of skb->data (or am I wrong on
this too?)

We really have to first understand why there is that + 1 there. I agree
that the condition and the increment should match, otherwise or there is
a mistake in the error condition or the increment just skips 1 byte, not
reading the last per each cycle, for no reason (very unlikely).

Reading process_adv_report() I spotted some memcpy() and other reads of
the memory area that begins at data (ev->data) and ends at (ev->data +
length).

Could anybody clarify the logic of that inc ?

Cheers,
Tomas
