Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next 03/11] net: vlan: add IFF_NO_VLAN_ROOM to constrain MTU
Normally MTU does not account for an outer VLAN tag, since MTU is an
L3 constraint. Some Ethernet devices, however, have a size constrained
L2 that cannot expand to accommodate a VLAN tag.
The MACsec virtual device is an existing example that limits the MTU of
upper VLAN devices via netif_reduces_vlan_mtu(), but there are other
devices that should do so too. For example, virtual tunnel devices that
provide L2 overlays inside L3 networks where the inner L2 headers
contribute towards the outer L3 size.
Generalize netif_reduces_vlan_mtu() using a new device private flag to
indicate that the lower device does not have sufficient room to
accommodate a VLAN tag and convert MACsec to use the new flag. Also
apply this concept to the VLAN virtual device itself, since physical
devices do not generally allocate L2 room for nested VLANs.
Note that if the lower device is manually configured to a smaller MTU
value than the maximum it supports, then there is sufficient room and
IFF_NO_VLAN_ROOM should not be set.
