If this packet came in from an 802.1Q VLAN device, the VLAN code already
has the logic necessary to map the .1q priority to an arbitrary skb->priority.

See the vconfig commands:
       set_egress_map  [vlan-name]      [skb_priority]   [vlan_qos]
       set_ingress_map [vlan-name]      [skb_priority]   [vlan_qos]

Thanks,
Ben
