Subject[patch 08/19] [VLAN]: Fix hardware rx csum errors
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
Receiving VLAN packets over a device (without VLAN assist) that is
doing hardware checksumming (CHECKSUM_HW), causes errors because the
VLAN code forgets to adjust the hardware checksum.
