This patch simplifies the code for openvswitch and potential other vlan code and drivers. There are at least two valid ether types for vlans and this code simplifies the openvswitch kernel module by simplifying code that checks for the presence of vlans. Do you want me to annotate the commit with additional description? > > Albino
