I'm porting the SLDcom Synchronous Serial driver for CISCO HDLC
to linux 2.0.x because they've put the source on their FTP server and
we purchased such a card.

It just started to run (easily killed by a ping -f) but i've got a 
question regarding to skbs.

The card delivers the frame with the CISCO-HDLC header (4 bytes).
Now i just ignore the first 4 bytes when copying the data from the
card to the skb. But i've got the feeling that there must be a better
way to do this.
