  To: David S. Miller, Jeff Garzik; +Cc: linux-netdev, bonding-devel

Now, that 2.4.25 is out, I'm resending the enhancements for VLAN over bonding.
Tested for patch application and compilation against linux-2.4.25.

Summary:
Enable intermediate network drivers like bonding to get or set a 
VLAN tag in an skb without a need to know about how tagging is done 
according to a network adapter's capabilities.
