677f6a7872 We shouldn't say that most Ethernet drivers don't support long frames,
as it's no longer true.

68721affb2 "Long frame" is the well-known term found in h/w documentation
from several vendors, so prefer it over other synonyms.

66d204f862 Now that we list hardware that supports vlan(4) natively,
we don't need to repeat that for each device listed.

f6e5e0ad77 Optionally pad outgoing frames to the minimum of 60 bytes (excl. FCS)
before tagging them.  This can help to work around brain-damage in some
switches that fail to pad a frame after untagging it if its length drops
below the minimum.  This option is blessed by IEEE Std 802.1Q (2003 Ed.),
paragraph C.4.4.3.b.  It's controlled by sysctl net.link.vlan.soft_pad.

db40c1aef4 Add VLAN for the dc(4) driver (ie long frame). The patch is 2 parts.
One to notify the system that the MTU for VLAN can be 1500 so the vlan
will automatically be configured with a 1500 MTU the other is to ignore
the error case if the received frame is to long.

The frame size notification came from code in the SIS driver, and
the support for long frames derived from the NetBSD Tulip driver.

Tested on:	4 port D-Link adapter DFE-570TX 4 Intel 21143
		Netgear card with 82c169 PNIC 10/100BaseTX
