Martin reported a set of filters don't work after changing from reclassify to continue. Looking into the code, it looks like skb protocol is not always fetched for each iteration of the filters. But, as demonstrated by Martin, TC actions could modify skb->protocol, for example act_vlan, this means we have to refetch skb protocol in each iteration, rather than using the one we fetch in the beginning of the loop. This bug is _not_ introduced by commit3b3ae88026("net: sched: consolidate tc_classify{,_compat}"), technically, if act_vlan is the only action that modifies skb protocol, then it is commitc7e2b9689e("sched: introduce vlan action") which introduced this bug.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
