From: zhong jiang <zhongjiang@huawei.com>

when I compiler the newest kernel, I hit the following error with
Werror=may-uninitalized.

net/core/flow_dissector.c: In function ?._skb_flow_dissect?
include/uapi/linux/swab.h:100:46: error: ?.lan?.may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
net/core/flow_dissector.c:248:26: note: ?.lan?.was declared here

This adds an additional check for proto to explicitly tell the compiler
that vlan pointer have the correct value before it is used.

It seems there is one similar patch already.
You could refer to https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9389565/
