Before executing the functions is_skb_forwardable() and skb_push(), the actual
packet consist of the follwing parts, Data 1480, UDP 8, IP 20, Ethernet 14, VLAN 4.
And the value of variables are dev->mtu=1500, dev->hard_header_len=14 and
skb->len=1508. The packet cannot pass through.

I will fix the previous description of packet len.
