So, after a bit more investigation, I think this was based on a faulty
understanding. I can't find any clear documentation of this so I've gone
wandering through the code.
In vlan_dev_init() in net/8021q/vlan_dev.c, there is a check for
vlan_hw_offload_capable() on the underlying network device. If this is
false (as it will be for the GbEth IP), a set of header_ops is selected
which inserts the vlan tag into the skb data. So, we can ignore
skb->vlan_proto as skb->protocol will always be set to the VLAN protocol
for VLAN tagged packets.
The conclusion is that we can drop this if condition completely and just
keep the following if (net_protocol == ETH_P_8021Q) condition.
Will fix this in v2...
Thanks,
