[Bridge] Sending 802.1Q packets using AF_PACKET socket on filtered bridge forwards with wrong MAC addresses

[Brandon Carpenter]

I narrowed the search to a memmove() called from
skb_reorder_vlan_header() in net/core/skbuff.c.

>     memmove(skb->data - ETH_HLEN, skb->data - skb->mac_len - VLAN_HLEN,
>        2 * ETH_ALEN);

Calling skb_reset_mac_len() after skb_reset_mac_header() before
calling br_allowed_ingress() in net/bridge/br_device.c fixes the
problem.

        skb_reset_mac_header(skb);
+       skb_reset_mac_len(skb);
        eth = eth_hdr(skb);
        skb_pull(skb, ETH_HLEN);


I'll put together an official patch  and submit it. Should I use
another email account? Are my emails being ignored because of that
stupid disclaimer my employer attaches to my messages (outside my
control)?
