[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net: adjust layer 2 length on soft VLAN insertion

[Andrew Rybchenko <arybchenko@solarflare.com>]

From: Dilshod Urazov <Dilshod.Urazov@oktetlabs.ru>

Layer 2 length must be updated after the prepend to mbuf to keep
the length right to be used by other Tx offloads.

If the packet has tunnel encapsulation, outer_l2_len should be
updated. Otherwise l2_len should be updated.

The fix is required for net/virtio which supports both VLAN
insertion (using the function) and Tx checksum offloads.

Condition to decide which layer 2 length to update is chosen in accordance
with [1], but could be ((*m)->ol_flags & PKT_TX_TUNNEL_MASK) != 0.
