Description: qeth: fix length check in SNMP processing
Symptom: Undefined behaviour.
Problem: The response for a SNMP request can consist of multiple parts,
              which the cmd callback stages into a kernel buffer until all
              parts have been received. If the callback detects that the
              staging buffer provides insufficient space, it bails out with
              error.
              This processing is buggy for the first part of the response -
              while it initially checks for a length of 'data_len', it later
              copies an additional amount of
              'offsetof(struct qeth_snmp_cmd, data)' bytes.
Solution: Fix the calculation of 'data_len' for the first part of the
              response.
