19 Run the filter code and then cut skb->data to correct size returned by
20 sk_run_filter. If pkt_len is 0 we toss packet. If skb->len is smaller
21 than pkt_len we keep whole skb->data. This is the socket level wrapper
22 to sk_run_filter. It returns 0 if the packet should be accepted or
23 -EPERM if the packet should be tossed.
