After the vlan parsing changes, we need to encode cvlan in outer
netlink attribute and then encode regular vlan. Currently we are
reversing netlink encoding while sending back the vlan attributes.
cvlan and vlan is independent, therefore we need to check
swkey->eth.cvlan.tc outside of swkey->eth.vlan.tci block. Also
redundant check for swkey->eth.cvlan.tci should be removed.

Can you also post changes for userspace vswitchd so that I can try next patch.
