Make clear that it affects only out-/inbound traffic and can be used if
the underlying physical NICs support only a limited number of VLANs when
offloading is possible.

After some off-list discussion with @Stefan Hanreich after his review,
we came to the conclusion that some explanation is needed to avoid
confusion.
I am not too happy with how long the explanation is, if someone has a
better idea to transport that information, I am absolutely not opposed
to it.
