To have the ability to handle xmit direct with outgoing encaps in the
bridge fastpass bypass, we need to be able to handle them without going
through vlan/pppoe devices.
So I've applied, amended and squashed wenxu's patch-set.
This patch also makes it possible to egress from vlan-filtering brlan to
lan0 with vlan tagged packets, if the bridge master port is doing the
vlan tagging, instead of a vlan-device, as seen in the figure below.
Without this patch, this is currently not possible in the
forward-fastpath.
