While both these described changes fix the same commit, can you please
split this patch into two, because it fixes two separate issues with that
code.

Just one review comment inline below. You can keep my ack on any new
versions.

We are missing handling here for the case of vlan_flag set and L2TAG2 flag
not set. However, that is handled by iavf_txd_enable_offload - but only if
IAVF_TX_VLAN_QINQ_OFFLOAD is set, which it is by default as far as I can see.
[Maybe a future patch we can remove that define???]. If it's not set, do we
need to handle the vlan case here? There also seems to be a little
duplication between the code here and in that function.
