Jeff,

Since the last 3 patches from this set depend on the acceptance of
the first 3, and because they are also based on previous changes in
bonding that are queued in the netdev-2.4/2.6 BK trees, do you have
a problem accepting all 6 patches into the netdev trees?

Also, speaking of the bonding changes queued in netdev-2.4, some of
those have been queued there since 2.4.23 came out. Will those be
pushed to Marcelo during 2.4.25 or do you intend to hold them until
2.4.26-preX starts?
