In vlan_insert_tag(), we insert a 4-byte VLAN header _after_
mac header:

        memmove(skb->data, skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, 2 * ETH_ALEN);
        ...
        veth->h_vlan_proto = htons(ETH_P_8021Q);
        ...
        veth->h_vlan_TCI = htons(vlan_tci);

so after it, we should recompute the checksum to include these 4 bytes.
skb->data still points to the mac header, therefore VLAN header is at
(2 * ETH_ALEN = 12) bytes after it, not (ETH_HLEN = 14) bytes.

This can also be observed via tcpdump:

         0x0000:  ffff ffff ffff 5254 005d 6f6e 8100 000a
         0x0010:  0806 0001 0800 0604 0001 5254 005d 6f6e
         0x0020:  c0a8 026e 0000 0000 0000 c0a8 0282

Similar for __pop_vlan_tci(), the vlan header we remove is the one
overwritten in:

	memmove(skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, skb->data, 2 * ETH_ALEN);

Therefore the VLAN_HLEN = 4 bytes after 2 * ETH_ALEN is the part
we want to sub from checksum.

* [PATCH 2/2] vlan: adjust vlan_set_encap_proto() for its callers

There are two places to call vlan_set_encap_proto():
vlan_untag() and __pop_vlan_tci().

vlan_untag() assumes skb->data points after mac addr, otherwise
the following code

        vhdr = (struct vlan_hdr *) skb->data;
        vlan_tci = ntohs(vhdr->h_vlan_TCI);
        __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, vlan_tci);

        skb_pull_rcsum(skb, VLAN_HLEN);

won't be correct. But __pop_vlan_tci() assumes points _before_
mac addr.

In vlan_set_encap_proto(), it looks for some magic L2 value
after mac addr:

        rawp = skb->data;
        if (*(unsigned short *) rawp == 0xFFFF)
	...

Therefore __pop_vlan_tci() is obviously wrong.

A quick fix is avoiding using skb->data in vlan_set_encap_proto(),
use 'vhdr+1' is always correct in both cases.
