as i can see, it's your commit c2f2f0000bb69f067fea12624272e6a58a811702.

Why we need received_fcs variable? We can completely drop it and calculate
fsc in gsm0_receive() and gsm1_receive(). gsm_queue() in this case will
contain only fsc checking code.

It's possible, see my comment about received_fcs variable above
