Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: fix EDSA frame from hwaccel frame

If the underlying network device features NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_TX,
an EDSA frame is prepended with a 802.1q header once queued.

To fix this, push the VLAN tag to the payload if present, before
checking the frame protocol.

[note: we may prefer to access directly VLAN TCI from hwaccel frames,
but this approach is simpler.]

This is a bug fix so should target 'net', but you generated the patch
against 'net-next'.

In any event, you should be explicit about the tree you are targetting
in order to not waste my time like this, by simply specifying the
tree in your "[PATCH xxx]" text in your subject line. Either
"[PATCH net]" or "[PATCH net-next]".

Thanks.

Dully noted. Should I resend it?
