"The tc could return NET_XMIT_CN as one congestion notification, but
it means another packet got dropped. Other modules like batman do not
treat NET_XMIT_CN as success, so modules like ipvlan, macvlan, ..
should ignore it as well."

Are you sure adding NET_XMIT_CN handling everywhere is the right way to
resolve the inconsistency?
