This duplicates much of __vlan_get_protocol.

With a wrapper to allow calling that while skb->data points at the
network header (as this is only SOCK_DGRAM) rather than the mac
header that it expects.

Then this does the same, but does call the function.

Is the difference that in the above you're trying to get the data only
out of the outer most vlan tag?

If so, can just call skb_header_pointer(skb, 0, sizeof(vhdr), &vhdr),
as skb->data is pointing to this tag.

As for sll_get_protocol, ideally we could just pass vlan_depth as an
extra parameter to __vlan_get_protocol. But that is too much churn. So
then you're approach of moving skb->data is indeed needed. Maybe call it
vlan_get_protocol_dgram or so. As that better describes the action.

Why change this from v3? I found the two separate cases more clear.
