Subject: [PATCH 1/3] net: maintain namespace isolation between vlan and real device

From: Arnd Bergmann <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2010 11:05:15 +0100

In the vlan and macvlan drivers, the start_xmit function forwards
data to the dev_queue_xmit function for another device, which may
potentially belong to a different namespace.

To make sure that classification stays within a single namespace,
this resets the potentially critical fields.
