brcmfmac: Ensure pointer correctly set if skb data location changes
[ Upstream commit 455a1eb4654c24560eb9dfc634f29cba3d87601e ] The incoming skb header may be resized if header space is insufficient, which might change the data adddress in the skb. Ensure that a cached pointer to that data is correctly set by moving assignment to after any possible changes.
