With an RTL8191SU USB adaptor, sometimes the hints for a fragmented
packet are set, but the packet length is too large. Truncate the packet
to prevent memory corruption.

Hi,
I think this solves the issue for me. I'll test it more thoroughly later. I
still don't know why a fragmented packet has such a large pkt_len value though.
Thanks,
Haggai
