I had quite a hard time to understand what the change to net/core/dev.c
is supposed to do.
Simplify the change by returning NETDEV_TX_OK in case a eth_mangle_tx
callback was set but returned NULL instead of setting the return value
in the else branch.

ar8216 switches have a hardware bug, which renders normal 802.1q support
unusable. Packet mangling is required to fix up the vlan for incoming
packets.
The patch was ommited at the time kernel 5.10 support was added but is
still required for ar8216 switches.
