    Now what have I done wrong. I noticed this yesterday and I can't figure out
    what I have done wrong. VLAN tagged ARP requests coming into if_nge are not
    visible anymore (tcpdump). Non VLAN tagged ARP requests are visible. Debug
    statements are showing the frame doesn't make it into the driver.

    This is the request as it leaves the remote host.
    11:04:53.588726 0:90:27:f4:58:1d ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 8100 46: 802.1Q vlan#2 P0
    arp who-has 10.2.0.1 tell 10.2.0.2

    Strangely though, other broadcasts that are VLAN tagged get delivered to the
    driver. With your patch they now correctly show up on the ng_vlan interface
    too.

    This is the other broadcast as sent by remote host:
    0:90:27:f4:58:1d ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 8100 257: 802.1Q vlan#2 P0 10.2.0.2.138 >
    10.2.0.255.138: NBT UDP PACKET(138)

    This is he above broadcast that was received by both if_nge and ng_vlan:
    0:90:27:f4:58:1d ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 0800 246: 10.2.0.2.138 > 10.2.0.255.138:
    NBT UDP PACKET(138)

    Any idea why the ARP packets would be filtered at the NIC? The same goes for
    ARP replies. I can ARP request from the if_nge machine, but the replies get
    dropped.
