vlan: introduce __vlan_insert_tag helper which does not free skb
There's a need for helper which inserts vlan tag but does not free the skb in case of an error. Suggested-by: Pravin Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
