Pedro, we have two kind of vlan setups :

accelerated and non accelerated ones.

Your patch address non accelated ones only, since you only touch
vlan_skb_recv()

Accelerated vlan can follow these paths :

1) NAPI devices

vlan_gro_receive() -> vlan_gro_common()

2) non NAPI devices

__vlan_hwaccel_rx() 

So you might also patch __vlan_hwaccel_rx() and vlan_gro_common()

Please merge following bits to your patch submission :

Good luck for your first patch !
