This was on purpose. Merging the two code blocks might break existing functionality.
There could be other modes where the packet arrives with 802.1q already in the
Skb and the skb->protocol needn’t be 802.1q.

Not done.
The total_bytes needs be the total length of packet after the host OS adds the 802.1q header back in
before tx. Updating the total_bytes to -= VLAN_HEADER will lead to packet drop in the Host OS driver.
