thanks for the report, myself or one of my team members will take a
quick pass at reproducing this issue, sounds like it won't be too
difficult to repro.

My initial thought is that the vlan code may not be fully working in
e1000, or that openvswitch needs set_rx_mode support.

The thing that would help me most would be a register dump when it
works (configured with vlan) and when it doesn't (with openvswitch)

the tool is called ethregs and is available from e1000.sf.net, the tool
is self documenting, but would be best run like so:

ethtool -i ethX

ethregs -c -o -s <bus:dev.fn from above> > regdump.txt

Thanks,
 Jesse
