Re: [PATCH] updated, ethernet-bridge: update skb->priority in case forwarded frame has VLAN-header

Actually there is a case to be made for this to be part of the
bridge code. A VLAN is a single collision domain which is mappable to a
collission domain that is a bridge.
infact the old VLAN code written by Lennert (and somebody else) had
those two intermingled.

When ethernet-bridge forward a packet and such ethernet-frame has
VLAN-tag, bridge should update skb->prioriry for properly QoS
handling. This small patch does this.

Based upon discussion during last week I added pskb_may_pull()
checking and simple mapping from 802.1p/user_priority to skb->priority.
