3.5.7u1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stanislav Yakovlev <stas.yakovlev@gmail.com>

commit bf11315eeda510ea4fc1a2bf972d8155d31d89b4 upstream.

The driver does not count space of radiotap fields when allocating skb for
radiotap packet. This leads to kernel panic with the following call trace:

...

This is missing from 3.4; it may just need de-fuzzing to apply.
