May be it should have more detailed explanation like that this feature is ON by default and what it affects on ?

May be add some little explanation that it means that if physical device goes DOWN then the vlan device does the same ?

Would it be useful if to add here explanation that under priority it means skb->priority and may be some example how it can be set by iptable CLASSIFY ?
