Thanks Jesse.

So if hwaccell vlan untagging is disabled, what is the current behavior? Is the frame delivered 
untouched (tagged) to ptype_all handlers if no particular vlan device is setup on the parent device?

With Jiri's patch, it would be always untagged, whatever requested by ethtool.

Am I right?

	Nicolas.
