ax25: add link layer header validation function

[ Upstream commit ea47781c26510e5d97f80f9aceafe9065bd5e3aa ]

As variable length protocol, AX25 fails link layer header validation
tests based on a minimum length. header_ops.validate allows protocols
to validate headers that are shorter than hard_header_len. Implement
this callback for AX25.
