Subject: [PATCH 2.6.27.y] stable request for vlan fix
I had a customer report that e1000/e1000e was hitting a vlan bug when
compiled without NAPI support. Turns out it had been solved already
in a newer kernel. Please consider for stable.
this commit was pushed in the 2.6.28-rc4 timeframe
git-cherry-pick 9b22ea560957de1484e6b3e8538f7eef202e3596
patch inline (likely whitespace corrupted, please use git)
(offsets adjusted for 2.6.27.y kernel)
I did a cherry pick to the 2.6.27.y.git and it worked fine (compile
tested only)

net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler
The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet
sockets (commit bc1d0411) caused a warning for non-NAPI drivers.
The __vlan_hwaccel_rx() function is called directly from the drivers
RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ
context:

Split hardware accelerated VLAN reception into two parts to fix
this:
- __vlan_hwaccel_rx just stores the VLAN TCI and performs the VLAN
device lookup, then calls netif_receive_skb()/netif_rx()
- vlan_hwaccel_do_receive(), which is invoked by netif_receive_skb()
in softirq context, performs the real reception and delivery to
packet sockets.
