------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Pointed out by Roger: The CIRC_BW OVERHEAD field currently counts a DATA
 cell on a valid stream but with 0 length as valid but 100% overhead. Since
 this can be injected arbitrarily by an end point, and should not happen in
 normal operation, it should not be counted as valid circuit data.
