This block doesn't have any code, is that on purpose? Most likely a
static checker finds this later and we need to remove it.

If your idea is to document the LLC case (which is very good!) it's
better to do everything inside a comment, for example like this:

	/* When fmt == RX_MSDU_DECAP_8023_SNAP_LLC:
         *
         * SNAP 802.3 consists of:
	 * [dst:6][src:6][len:2][dsap:1][ssap:1][ctl:1][snap:5]
	 * [data][fcs:4].
	 *
	 * Since this overlaps with A-MSDU header (da, sa, len)
	 * there's nothing extra to do. */
