Yes. I could return EINVAL or EOPNOTSUPP when trying to send/receive a
packet with virtio_net_hdr on non-ethernet devices.

OK. I will fix this.

I also thought we need to address vlans here, but even tun doesn't
handle this in the send routine. I submitted a patch that fixed
skb_gso_segment() to handle vlan packets. This will address both
tun and packet sockets.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/150198
With this patch, i tested vlans with both ipv4 and ipv6.

I could return -EINVAL in that case.

OK. i will add a check when setting PACKET_RX_RING/TX_RING socket
options.
