Why would you ever want to remove a warning that's telling you you're
doing something wrong?

Aren't you calling __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag() with the wrong thing (i.e.
htons(RX_DMA_VPID()) as opposed to VPID translated to something
digestible by the rest of the network stack.. ETH_P_8021Q, ETH_P_8021AD
etc)?
