Thanks for fixing a typo. ;-)

I haven't seen this error case, I just added it to be save.

After fixing the length the header is better, but it also contains a
CRC, which is still wrong, but we ignore it and I do not think we have
to check.

I still think that the best approach would be to remove the nvram header
and add a extra variable storing the actual size of the nvram buf. I
also think this would make some of this code easier.

I have no real opinion if we need to copy it or provide a pointer to the
nvram buf. I trust brcmfmac that it does not screw around with this
data. ;-)
