   +#if defined(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q) || defined(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q_MODULE)
   
   Is this avoidable somehow?

It's stupid to have all the overhead when vlans aren't even

That was my original impetus.

It's costly in some cases, when you have the TXDs on the chip
you can avoid an entire PIO for each packet.
