=====================================================

ppp_sync_input() checks the first 2 bytes of the data are PPP_ALLSTATIONS
and PPP_UI. However, if the data length is 1 and the first byte is
PPP_ALLSTATIONS, an access to an uninitialized value occurs when checking
PPP_UI. This patch resolves this issue by checking the data length.
