Before the commit 0dfe17823945 ("net: vlan: goto another_round instead of calling __netif_receive_skb"), on tagged skb ingress, ptype specific protocol matches were delivered only to the related vlan device, if any. After said commit, jumping back to the 'another_round' label, allows the later ptype specific check to match both orig_dev and skb->dev, delivering the skb to both the vlan device and the underlying device. This cause i.e. packet sockets bound to a specific protocol type on one of said devices to receive also frames really targeting the other device. This commit resets orig_dev before performing another round due to vlan processing, allowing the skb to be delivered once again only to the vlan specific ptypes.
