Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 0/6] openvswitch: make vlan handling consistent

Always keep the first vlan tag "accelerated", i.e. in skb->vlan_tci.

Unfortunately, with all the changes since v2, this patchset no longer has
the nice deletions > insertions diffstat. I still think it's worth it, as it
makes things more consistent overall.

Patch 3 is valid on its own. Patch 6 is needed in one form or other; with
the changes in this set, it's a simple deletion. Otherwise we'd need more
elaborate checks.

Jiri Benc (6):
  openvswitch: make skb modifiable in ovs_flow_key_extract*
  openvswitch: normalize vlan rx path
  openvswitch: add NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_STAG_TX to internal dev
  openvswitch: keep vlan tag accelerated on internal device
  openvswitch: remove unreachable code in vlan parsing
  openvswitch: fix vlan subtraction from packet length
