Subject: [PATCH] tg3: Allow for receive of full-size 8021AD frames

When receiving a vlan-tagged frame that still contains
a vlan header, the length of the packet will be greater
then MTU+ETH_HLEN since it will account of the extra
vlan header.  TG3 checks this for the case for 802.1Q,
but not for 802.1ad.  As a result, full sized 802.1ad
frames get dropped by the card.

Add a check for 802.1ad protocol when receiving full
sized frames.
