IMHO linux should not drop unclassified vlan packets to pass these to sniffers. 
isn't it?
But, since the __vlan_hwaccel_rx drops unclassified vlan packets, sniffers 
cannot see them.
This make the __vlan_hwaccel_rx receive and process an unclassified vlan packet 
as a PACKET_OTHERHOST.
Any check, comments will be appreciated.
Thanks.
