Log:
  Relax restriction on direct tx to child ports
  
  Lagg(4) restricts the type of packet that may be sent directly to a child
  port, to avoid undesired output from accidental misconfiguration.
  Previously only ETHERTYPE_PAE was permitted.
  
  BPF writes to a lagg(4) child port are presumably intentional, so just
  allow them, while still blocking other packets that should take the
  aggregation path.
