It uses skb_network_offset(skb) to know where the real header is. This
should work independent of DSA or EDSA.
mvpp2_main.c looks to have something similar. The older mv643xx_eth.c
also has something, but it is more subtle. Ah, found it:

Maybe. Depends on how genet works. A Broadcom switch connected to a
Marvell MAC probably works, since the code is generic. It should work
for any switch which uses head tagging, although mv643xx_eth.c is
limited to 4 or 8 byte tags.
