Some taps, such as tap-comparestat.c and tap-rtp-common.c, make use of pinfo->iphdrlen, so shouldn't tap_queue_packet() be called *after* all

I had already changed this to be the case for IPv4 (see line 2079), but
I just
found the same thing in IPv6 (line 1976), so now I just want to be sure
I'm
doing this right, or maybe there's some reason this wasn't being done
for both
of them? Thanks.

Hi,

This of course depends on what these taps listen to. Is it the 'ip' tap
(like probably for tap-comparestat.c), then yes. Is it the "rtp" tap
(probably for a user of tap-rtp-common.c) then no.

Thanks,
Jaap
