Subject: 6lowpan: use stack buffer instead of heap
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fc4e98dbbaa30ca2180df0b2b0d0608045ed3f19;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

6lowpan: use stack buffer instead of heap

head buffer is only temporary available in lowpan_header_create.
So it's not necessary to put it on the heap.

Also fixed a comment codestyle issue.
