This may be used by vxlan, but it does not imply it.

Adding ETH_HLEN bytes likely means pushing an Ethernet header, but same point.

Conversely, pushing an Ethernet header is not limited to UDP encap.

This probably needs a new explicit BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_.. flag, rather than
trying to infer from imprecise heuristics.
