I have noticed that you use skb_calculate_flow() in
macvtap_get_queue() where skb->data doesn't point to the network
header but the ethernet header. However, skb_calculate_flow() assume
skb->data points to the network header. There are two choices:
 * update skb_calculate_flow to support called in ethernet layer.
 * pull skb before skb_calculate_flow, and push skb after
skb_calculate_flow() in macvtap_get_queue().

I prefer the former way.

BTW: the function name skb_calculate_flow isn't good. How about
skb_get_rxhash(). Maybe we can implement two versions: fast path and
slow path. And implement the fast path version as a inline function in
skbuff.h.

static inline u32 skb_get_rxhash(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
        u32 rxhash;

        rxhash = skb->rxhash;
        if (!rxhash)
                return __skb_get_rxhash(skb);
        return rxhash;
}
