LARQ seems to be used by Broadcom's staging driver.
Might as well add a #define for it to the normal location.

That should be ETH_P_BRCM (or ETH_P_EPIGRAM). HPNA/ILCP used a range of
subtypes for LARQ and other HPNA protocols. The brcmfmac driver uses a
different subypte for encapsulating some event signals between the device and
the host, but doesn't implement any of the HPNA protocols.

Another choice might be ETH_P_LINK_CTL

That would be fine too.

Ethertype used by HPNA control protocols (LARQ, rate, link, etc) and by
Broadcom wlan drivers for local signalling.
