[PATCH net-next V20 2/3] Check for vlan ethernet types for 8021.q or 802.1ad

From: Thomas F Herbert <hidden>
Date: 2015-11-05 19:34:04
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

This is to simplify using double tagged vlans. This function allows all
valid vlan ethertypes to be checked in a single function call.
