 This rule does have less-obvious consequences so it is worth working
 through a few examples.  Suppose, for example, that the kernel module
 did not already implement VLAN parsing.  Instead, it just interpreted
 the 802.1Q TPID (0x8100) as the Ethertype then stopped parsing the
 packet.  The flow key for any packet with an 802.1Q header would look
