drivers/net/wan/lapbether: Make skb->protocol consistent with the header
This driver is a virtual driver stacked on top of Ethernet interfaces. When this driver transmits data on the Ethernet device, the skb->protocol setting is inconsistent with the Ethernet header prepended to the skb. This causes a user listening on the Ethernet interface with an AF_PACKET socket, to see different sll_protocol values for incoming and outgoing frames, because incoming frames would have this value set by parsing the Ethernet header. This patch changes the skb->protocol value for outgoing Ethernet frames, making it consistent with the Ethernet header prepended. This makes a user listening on the Ethernet device with an AF_PACKET socket, to see the same sll_protocol value for incoming and outgoing frames.
