Some drivers which use vlan_get_protocol to get IP protocol for checksum offload discards
packets when it cannot get the protocol.
I guess for such users this function should try to get protocol even if it is not in skb header?
I'm not sure such a case can happen, but since you care about this, you know real cases where
vlan tag can be in skb frags?
