IEEE 802.1Q says that:
- VID 0 shall not be configured as a PVID, or configured in any
- Filtering
Database entry.
- VID 4095 shall not be configured as a PVID, or transmitted in a tag
header. This VID value may be used to indicate a wildcard match for
the VID
in management operations or Filtering Database entries.
(See IEEE 802.1Q-2005 6.7.1 and Table 9-2)

Don't accept adding these VIDs in the vlan_filtering implementation.

Vlad, as far as I can see your redhat.com email ends just with a "c"
not a "ch".  It's your gmail account that ends in a "ch".

I'm fixing this up while applying these patches, if you have something
automatically generating these reviewed-by strings please fix it up
although I note that some are correct and some are not so maybe you
do this by hand :-)
Apologies.  Yes, I usually ack things by hand and sometimes fingers just
keep going...
