    ppp: Avoid overflow when formatting endpoint discriminator options
    
    Each byte of the address is represented by a pair of characters, so we
    should be multiplying len by 2 when figuring out how much buffer space
    we have.  Previously, a sufficiently large option could cause an
    overflow of the global "result" buffer.
