Re: [PATCH] updated, ethernet-bridge: update skb->priority in caseforwarded frame has VLAN-header

[jamal]

Actually there is a case to be made for this to be part of the
bridge code. A VLAN is a single collision domain which is mappable to a
collission domain that is a bridge.
infact the old VLAN code written by Lennert (and somebody else) had
those two intermingled.

cheers,
