It seems that protocol tagging driver writers are always surprised about the formula they use to reach their EtherType header on RX, which becomes apparent from the fact that there are comments in multiple drivers that mention the same information. Create a helper that returns a void pointer to skb->data - 2, as well as centralize the explanation why that is the case.

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.
