The goal is to support a bpf_redirect() from an ethernet device (ingress) to a ppp device (egress). The l2 header is added automatically by the ppp driver, thus the ethernet header should be removed.

v2 -> v3: - add a comment in the code - rework the commit log
v1 -> v2: - I forgot the 'Tested-by' tag in the v1 :/
