Subject: vlan: mask vlan prio bits

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d4b812dea4a236f729526facf97df1a9d18e191c ]

In commit 48cc32d38a52d0b68f91a171a8d00531edc6a46e
("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols")
Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST
if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this
particular id.

But we also have a problem if prio bits are set.

Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a
vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device,
because skb->vlan_tci is set.

Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000)
being inserted in the middle of IPv6 source address :

16:48:00.780413 IP6 2001:16d8:8100:4000:ee1c:0:9d9:bc87 >
9f94:4d95:2001:67c:29f4::: ICMP6, unknown icmp6 type (0), length 64
       0x0000:  0000 0029 8000 c7c3 7103 0001 a0ae e651
       0x0010:  0000 0000 ccce 0b00 0000 0000 1011 1213
       0x0020:  1415 1617 1819 1a1b 1c1d 1e1f 2021 2223
       0x0030:  2425 2627 2829 2a2b 2c2d 2e2f 3031 3233

It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now.

We can probably do better in future kernels :
vlan_get_ingress_priority() should be a netdev property instead of
a per vlan_dev one.

For stable kernels, lets clear vlan_tci to fix the bugs.
