The packet will select the VLAN or eth0 device before any of the IP protocol handlers get invoked. It will go to the eth0 interface if there is no VLAN header. If it has a VLAN header, and that VLAN exists (VID 0 or otherwise), then the packet will be received on eth0 (as far as tcpdump, etc is concerned), but it will then also be received on it's VLAN device. Any higher level protocols on eth0 will not receive the packet.
