  Yes, I agree with you, and this patch is just to check whether this PREQ is valid with 
  the ttl it contains instead of local TTL, and the local TTL has also been provided for 
  PREP further process.

  With the baseaddr steps with 4 bytes, while the baselen minus with 4 bytes, it's to avoid 
  following element parser in random with last 8 bytes.
  ===> ieee802_11_parse_elems(baseaddr, len - baselen, &elems);
