Thanks for this change.

I have integrated it into my local checkout containing the 802.1p/q 
rewrite as it is needed there to do the right thing when M_VLANTAG is 
*always* used even when the cards themselves do not do VLAN hwtagging.

I have moved the 802.1p/q decapsulation to ether_input() itself as per 
thompsa@'s suggestion.

I should really use p4 (or Hg) for this next time around...
