There's a small indent typo here: (1ULL << 15) is not aligned
with the lines above

Maybe some more affectations are missing. For instance in
examples/ipv4_multicast/main.c or in examples/vhost/main.c.
You can grep "->vlan_tci =" to find them all.

Do we need to update rte_vlan_insert() and rte_vlan_strip() to
support QinQ?
