I am trying to implement dissector for my proprietary protocol. This protocol
can have more than 1 message in 1 TCP segment. I pass get_myprotocol_pdu_len()
to tcp_dissect_pdu() function. 

When there are 2 messages in 1 segment, this function is called twice. SO far
so good. First time tvb->real_data is pointing to 0xfirstpdu_start_addr. So far
so good. First PDU in this segment is handles correctly.

Now my_protocol_pdu_len() is called 2nd time to get 2nd pdu len but
tvb->real_data is still pointing to 0xfirstpdu_start_addr instead of start of
2nd pdu.

I fixed it in the following way.
