Fixes tag and Cc: stable.

As discussed please add more detail to the commit message that
explains the bug. And/or add a Link: for instance to the github

Don't move this out of the original branch and don't make the valid
conditional on the value of tp_vlan_tci. Just duplicating the line
to both branches is fine. Here and below.

For QinQ you probably want the true network protocol, not the inner
VLAN tag.
