In 93515d53b1
"net: move vlan pop/push functions into common code"
skb_vlan_pop was moved from its private location in openvswitch to
skbuff common code.
In case skb has non hw-accel vlan tag, the original 'pop_vlan()' assured
that skb->len is sufficient (if skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN then pop was
considered a no-op).
This validation was moved as is into the new common 'skb_vlan_pop'.
Alas, in its original location (openvswitch), there was a guarantee that
'data' points to the mac_header, therefore the 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN'
condition made sense.
However there's no such guarantee in the generic 'skb_vlan_pop'.
For short packets received in rx path going through 'skb_vlan_pop',
this causes 'skb_vlan_pop' to fail pop-ing a valid vlan hdr (in the non
hw-accel case) or to fail moving next tag into hw-accel tag.
Remove the 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN' condition entirely:
It is superfluous since inner '__skb_vlan_pop' already verifies there
are VLAN_ETH_HLEN writable bytes at the mac_header.
Note this presents a slight change to skb_vlan_pop() users:
In case total length is smaller than VLAN_ETH_HLEN, skb_vlan_pop() now
returns an error, as opposed to previous "no-op" behavior.
Existing callers (e.g. tc act vlan, ovs) usually drop the packet if
'skb_vlan_pop' fails.
Fixes: 93515d53b1 ("net: move vlan pop/push functions into common code")

v3: Elaborate log message to explain the change presented to
'skb_vlan_pop' users for packets smaller than VLAN_ETH_HLEN
v2: Remove 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN' condition entirely (instead of
testing skb->mac_len as was in v1), suggested by Pravin Shelar

Fix 'skb_vlan_pop' to use eth_type_vlan instead of directly comparing
skb->protocol to ETH_P_8021Q or ETH_P_8021AD.
