Note to testers:

My LLM agreed with the change in vlan_dev_hard_header() (above), but said
that no change was needed in vlan_dev_hard_start_xmit() (below)

I'll need the patch applied to 6.18.y for testing, as I can't test it
personally and I want to provide testers with the same kernel/system
version as before just with minimal changes. So do I understand
correctly that the patch below is what you want to get tested, no
changes in vlan_dev_hard_start_xmit()?

This is the current patch under review :

Thanks.
