Is that preferrable to this patch?  Tunneling vlan-tagged frames
seems weird, but I would hate to disallow it if some crazy person
wanted to do that...

I guess the other way would slightly improve performance, and this
could be added back later.  What about the VLAN-related bits in
dev->features and ->hw_features?  Should they go as well?
