Thanks. Yes I agree that is a good idea.

Agreed.

What I have done is to make an incremental patch which:

1. Moves the 'vlan_tci' member of strict xlate_in to
   be the 'final_vlan_tci' member of struct xlate_ctx.

2. Moves the 'vlan_tci' local variable of do_xlate_actions()
   to be the 'next_vlan_tci' member of struct xlate_ctx.

3. Restructures the comments surrounding the logic of the vlan_tci
   code that this patch adds mostly as comments for the new
   members of struct xlate_ctx. I hope things are (still?) clear.

For reference, the incremental patch I have so far is as follows.
I will squash it into this patch before reposting this series.

commit d57735cec0d3e53c7479725ae1cf825563902c30
Author: Simon Horman <horms@...ge.net.au>
Date:   Mon Oct 7 14:30:28 2013 +0900

    Move vlan state into struct xlate_ctx
    
    1. Add final_vlan_tci member to struct xlate_ctx instead of vlan_tci member
       struct xlate_xin.  This seems to be a better palace for it as it does
       not need to be accessible from the caller.
    
    2. Move local vlan_tci variable of do_xlate_actions() to be the
       next_vlan_tci member of strict xlate_ctx.  This allows for it to work
       across resubmit actions and goto table instructions.
    
    As suggested by Ben Pfaff
