Not having much luck with using  __vlan_find_dev_deep_rcu() for a reason
I don't understand we trip over the proto value being neither of the two
support Ethertype and hit the BUG().

+       upper_dev = __vlan_find_dev_deep_rcu(br, htons(proto), vid);
+       if (upper_dev)
+               return skb;

Any ideas?
