The goal is to support a bpf_redirect() from an ethernet device (ingress)
to a ppp device (egress).
The l2 header is added automatically by the ppp driver, thus the ethernet
header should be removed.

CC: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 27b29f63058d ("bpf: add bpf_redirect() helper")
Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com>
Tested-by: Siwar Zitouni <siwar.zitouni@6wind.com>
---

v2 -> v3:
 - add a comment in the code
 - rework the commit log

v1 -> v2:
 - I forgot the 'Tested-by' tag in the v1 :/
