Does this really do the right thing?  If the RX vlan setting is
changed, it will do the opposite of what the user requested for TX
vlan?

So if I start with both on (the default) and turn them both off in one
command (a valid setting), I will get RX off and TX on (an invalid
setting).

Why not:

if (!(data & ETH_FLAG_RXVLAN))
        data &= ~ETH_FLAG_TXVLAN;
