Subject: via-rhine: fix VLAN receive handling regression.
From: Andrej Ota <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit 5f715c097965c0ad037f64393d0b95c50287775b ]
Because eth_type_trans() consumes ethernet header worth of bytes, a call to read TCI from end of packet using rhine_rx_vlan_tag() no longer works as it's reading from an invalid offset.
Tested to be working on PCEngines Alix board.
