Doesn't that require NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_TX?

I also wondered whether we should just convert the skb for this case
with skb_vlan_untag, to avoid needing new PF_PACKET logic to handle
unstripped tags in the packet socket code. But it seems equally
complex.

Aside from this conversation whether we need to support this
unstripped case at all, code LGTM.
