I think this is not very intuitive, because this logic is correct only if 'bw' is u8.

Then, this option may be not bad:
if (skb->len >= RTL8XXXU_C2H_HDR_LEN + offsetof(typeof(c2h->ra_report), bw) + sizeof(c2h->ra_report.bw))

or 
Not need RTL8XXXU_C2H_HDR_LEN. Just use offsetof() to calculate: 
if (skb->len >= offsetof(typeof(*c2h), ra_report.bw) + sizeof(c2h->ra_report.bw))

or
If you still prefer 'skb->len >', this may be more concise than original one.
if (skb->len > offsetof(typeof(*c2h), ra_report.bw))
