gianfar: prevent buggy hw rx vlan tagging
On some buggy chips, "vlan tag present" flag is set which causes packet loss. Fix this by checking if rx vlan accel is enabled in features. Reported-by: Michael Guntsche <mguntsche@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
