[76/82] net/core: Allow tagged VLAN packets to flow through VETH devices.

[76/82] net/core: Allow tagged VLAN packets to flow through VETH devices.

[Greg KH]

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

[ Upstream commit d2ed817766987fd05e69b7da65d4861b38f1aa2a ]

When there are VLANs on a VETH device, the packets being transmitted
through the VETH device may be 4 bytes bigger than MTU.  A check
in dev_forward_skb did not take this into account and so dropped
these packets.

This patch is needed at least as far back as 2.6.34.7 and should
be considered for -stable.
