We've met the problem that when there is a vlan tag inside
GRE encapsulation, the match of num_of_vlans fails.
It is caused by the vlan tag inside GRE payload has been
counted into num_of_vlans, which is not expected.
One example packet is like this:
Ethernet II, Src: Broadcom_68:56:07 (00:10:18:68:56:07)
Dst: Broadcom_68:56:08 (00:10:18:68:56:08)
802.1Q Virtual LAN, PRI: 0, DEI: 0, ID: 100
Internet Protocol Version 4, Src: 192.168.1.4, Dst: 192.168.1.200
Generic Routing Encapsulation (Transparent Ethernet bridging)
Ethernet II, Src: Broadcom_68:58:07 (00:10:18:68:58:07)
Dst: Broadcom_68:58:08 (00:10:18:68:58:08)
802.1Q Virtual LAN, PRI: 0, DEI: 0, ID: 200
...
It should match the (num_of_vlans 1) rule, but it matches
the (num_of_vlans 2) rule.
The vlan tags inside the GRE or other tunnel encapsulated payload
should not be taken into num_of_vlans.
The fix is to stop counting the vlan number when the encapsulation
bit is set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
