Following patch cures the problem, I am not sure its the right fix.

Problem is we dont know how many times vlan_do_receive() can be called
for a packet.

Only last call should set/mess pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST.

So the caller should be responsible for this, not vlan_do_receive()


Alternative would be to check skb->dev->rx_handler being NULL,
but its not clean.

Following patch is a hack because it handles multicast/broadcast trafic
only. Unicast is already handled in lines 26-33, this is why we didnt
catch the problem.
